This is insulated outdoor wood furnace & boiler 3/4" Oxygen Barrier PEX Pipe.
3/4" insulated pex is most commonly used to transport domestic hot water usually from stoves with domestic coils.
Oxygen barrier tubing is recommended for all types of systems to prevent oxygen diffusion through the pex tubing.
For closed systems an oxygen barrier is a must.
For open systems it greatly reduces the amount of oxygen in the water which limits corrosion (as proven, oxygenated water causes aggressive corrosion of any metal).
Features
- All of our dual line piping systems have a layer of insulation between the two pipes
- Approved for use with potable hot water and with any outdoor wood stove
- Can be placed above ground for mid-winter installations
- Taped solid from one end to the other so that the insulation remains tight around the pex tubing and keeps your lines hot
- 25 year warranty
Package includes
- A flexible 4" waterproof corrugated plastic pipe (see pictures)
- Two 3/4" oxygen barrier pex lines (one is solid red, the other is solid blue for easy identification)
- Triple wrapped low-E closed-cell foil-faced aluminum insulation (see pictures),fully taped from end to end
- A string line inside the 4" pipe for snaking anything else through the piping
- Each order includes a termination cap (shown in picture) for each end [extra caps are additional]
