growth in its radiant heating and cooling projects over the past several years primarily due to the sustainability of the system. Because projects can incorporate hydronic radiant systems into other sustainable building practices, such as geothermal, solar and a dedicated outside air system, it is an ideal option for large commercial structures that consume great amounts of energy. “Using PEX in a LEED Platinum project to help boost energy efficiency shows the value a PEX-based system brings to sustainable building practices. In addition, with the flexibility and strength of a PEX piping product that can be buried in the slab to effectively warm and cool a large structure, the professional community – including installers, project managers, architects and engineers – as well as the students, families, faculty and staff using the building, can see that PEX is a durable product that is manufactured to last for decades of successful use.” According to Randy Knapp, director of engineering for PPI’s Building and Construction division, “PEX pipe is a product that satisfies the needs of homeowners, builders and plumbers by providing long-term performance, and making installations more labour- and cost-efficient. “PEX is the material of choice for radiant heating systems and is quickly replacing copper for residential potable water plumbing. Other applications of PEX include AWWA municipal water service; snow and ice melt systems; turf conditioning; residential fire sprinklers; and geothermal systems. Typically found in sizes from 3 / 8 " to 2", and up to 3" in diameter, PEX pipe comes in straight lengths or coils.” The PPI Project of the Year recognition programme honours significant industry contributions and professional achievements (see page 24).
