How to use PEX Press Fittings

PEX Press Fittings are a popular choice for plumbing systems due to their ease of installation and durability. Here are some tips for using PEX Press Fitting effectively.

First, make sure to choose the correct size fittings for your PEX tubing. PEX tubing comes in various sizes, and using the wrong size fittings can lead to leaks and other problems. Make sure to check the manufacturer’s specifications and select the correct fitting size.

Before installing the fittings, prepare the ends of the PEX tubing by cutting it square and removing any burrs or debris. This ensures a secure connection between the tubing and fitting. The fittings should also be clean and free of any debris or foreign materials.

To install the fittings, simply slide the PEX tubing into the fitting, making sure the end of the tubing reaches the marked depth on the fitting. Then, use a PEX Press Tool to compress the fitting onto the tubing. The Press Tool should make a distinct “click” noise when the connection is complete.

It’s important to perform a pressure test on the system after installation to ensure there are no leaks. This can be done by using a pressure gauge and checking for any drops in pressure.

In summary, using PEX Press Fitting is a simple and effective way to install plumbing systems. Remember to choose the correct size fittings, prepare the ends of the tubing, use a Press Tool to compress the fittings, and perform a pressure test to ensure proper installation. With these tips, you can confidently install a PEX plumbing system that will last for years to come.
