The RHT Geothermal HDPE PEX piping is suitable for both open and closed ground loping applications and this PEX piping offers many advantages, such as a resistance to corrosion and rusting and unlike conventional pipe, the PEX piping will prevent a build up of mineral deposits from accumulating in the pipe. The PEX piping is resistant to the growth of fungi, algae and bacterial growth and the incremental strapping is able to provide increased safety and assist with installation. Other types of PEX piping include the RHT Radiant PEX pipe, which is a combination of the PEX-b piping and a cross linking method. This particular PEX piping is able to meet the demands of the stringent ASTM F 876 and 877 standards and is the ideal choice for PEX radiant piping. Owing to the fact that this type of PEX piping is able to meet the ASTM standards, the piping is the ideal choice for just about any mechanical or crimp fitting. To view the full RHT PEX piping specifications and certifications, our website offers detailed technical specifications and we have created a practical comparison between the RHT PEX piping and the RHT multilayer pipes. When compared to other RHT pipes the PEX piping has the lowest cost for a small diameter pipe and it provides excellence in stress crack resistance.

Owing to the fact that we specialize in the supply of PEX piping, we stock PEX-b, PEX-c, PEX-al, geothermal HDPE, along with all the necessary PEX fittings and PEX tools. Viewing the comparison between the PEX piping and the other types of piping, the installation and size stability of the PEX piping can be easily viewed, and such benefits of the PEX piping include easy installing, lower size stability and a good heat aging resistance. Unlike the UPVC pipes, the PEX piping offers easy bending at room temperature and since the PEX piping can be coiled, it allows for easy transporting, unlike the PRR pipes which cannot be coiled, but are transported as straight pipes. The PEX piping is hygienic and toxin free and due to the fact that PEX piping is able to prevent the build up and growth of microorganisms within the piping system, the threat of contamination is greatly reduced. Unlike other types of pipes, PEX piping has a lifespan of more than half a century and since the pipes are bendable but will never spring back, the need for additional fittings offers easy and affordable installation.
PEX piping is cross linked polyethylene and is commonly used within radiant heating systems, as well as for domestic water piping and insulation for high tension electrical cables. Blue Ridge Company has allowed artisans from around the country to purchase their PEX piping and tubing as well as PEX tools at greatly reduced prices. Of late, PEX piping has become the preferred method to transfer water in hydronic heating systems, and the PEX piping is also used to transport hot water away from the heat source to baseboards and radiators.
