▪ Easy handling in addition to a lower material cost, Xirtec pipe can significantly reduce labor and transportation cost on a typical installation |
▪ Xirtec PVC provide year of maintenance free service, our material will not rust, pit, scale or corrode on either interior or exterior surfaces |
▪ Xirtec is immune to damaged from naturally corrosive soil conditions as well as electrochemical and galvanic corrosion, this is particularly advantageous in underground installation where galvanic reaction often causes damaged to metal piping products |
▪ The IPEX vinyl system, including pipe, valves and fitting, provide outstanding resistance to a wide range of chemical such as most acids, alcohols, alkalis, salt solutions, halogens and more |
▪ Xirtec have a substantially lower roughness factor than metal and other material, and since they do not rust, pit, scale or corrode, the interior walls remain smooth in virtually any service |
▪ xirtec140 polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is suitable for use with potable water as listed with the national sanitation foundation (NSF) and CSA international |
▪ Exceptional temperature range IPEX vinyl system are designed to meet a broad range of service temperature, Xirtec has a recommended maximum service temperature of 140 deg F (60 deg C) in pressure, with a higher limit of 180 deg F (82 deg C) for intermittent gravity flow |
▪ With a low thermal conductivity factor, IPEX vinyl system have less heat loss or gain, thus sustaining service temperature more efficiently than metal piping, as a result, pipe insulation is often not required |
▪ Environmentally responsible with energy conservation a prime concern, you can rely on the fact that IPEX's manufacturing process for Xirtec piping materials requires less than half the energy needed to produce the equivalent size of carbon steel or steel allow material |
