Presenting Viega PureFlow System.Freakish Performance.

This PureFlow PEX is more than meets the eye. It’s been specially

designed for the residential builder. It’s the amazingly reliable.

The incredibly efficient. A modern feat of German engineering.

It’s the one, the only – Viega PureFlow System.

Step right up, folks. This PureFlow PEX has a lot to flex.

A higher density PEX. The highest possible chlorine/UV

resistance rating. And since no tubing alterations are necessary

during installation, Viega eliminates the risk of microtears that can

occur with cold expansion. Talk about a Titan of Tubing.

Feast your eyes (just don’t blink).

Viega PureFlow System installs in a fraction of time compared to

alternatives. They pressure test immediately. They don’t require

time for drying, curing or contracting. In fact they’re so efficient,

they’ll save up to 3 hours on residential applications.

Fathom this: more confidence in every PureFlow PEX connection.

With Viega’s Smart Connect technology, you can instantly identify

unpressed connections. And with factory-assembled sleeves

across a vertically integrated manufacturing process,

there’s consistency in every ounce of ingenuity.
