Tee insulation kit makes an insulated tee connection of single or twin-style Ecoflex pre-insulated pipe.
WIPEX dezincification-resistant (DZR) compression fittings transition PEX service pipe to a male NPT thread for a watertight, leak-resistant system.
EPDM rubber end caps seal the exposed insulation between the jacket and service pipe after the pipe is cut to make a connection. Each end cap includes a stainless-steel clamp and an EPDM rubber O-ring.Note: Uponor requires end caps at all ends of the piping system to ensure system integrity.Twin EPDM end caps are used with Ecoflex thermal twin pipes and Ecoflex potable PEX twin pipes.
Shrink sleeves ensure a watertight seal between the Ecoflex pipe and the exterior of the connection vault. Shrink sleeves may also repair minor damage to the corrugated HPDE jacket of Ecoflex pipe.Note: Refer to the Pre-insulated Pipe Systems Design and Installation Manual for installation and repair procedures.
