ProPress
We’ve talked about the benefits of using the
ProPress fastening system in the past. The
advantage of installing a copper based plumbing or
heating system without soldering a fitting cannot be
dismissed. No fear of fire in close quarters nor
dealing with leaky shutoff valves is a tremendous
“plus”.
Now Viega has expanded the fittings offering
through Ridgid. Pex to ProPess adapters are
available through 1” and larger pex jaws will soon be
available for the battery operated pressing tools.
Perhaps its time to take a closer look at this
fastening system. Near boiler piping in copper and
transitioning to pex for runouts can make a fast and
very attractive installation. Or, use the ProPress
system to continue the tradition of copper water
systems and add your time savings to the bottom
line. Yaun Company stocks ProPress fittings from ˝”
to 2".
