Are you looking for a discrete heating system that provides pleasant, comfortable heat? Underfloor heating is the right choice.
The Henco multilayer pipe has been designed for the most demanding and diverse applications, based on the principle that only the best quality is good enough. The result is the leading, most reliable multifunctional PEX pipe on the international market. The Henco multilayer pipe combines all of the advantages of synthetic materials and metal pipes.
Thermal Conductivity coefficient is 13% higher
• The aluminum layer in PEX-AL-PEX pipe increases the overall thermal conductivity over other PEX pipe by 13%
• Up to 10% increase in BTU/hr
• PEX-AL-PEX is the most energy efficient radiant pipe available
• Faster response time
• Lower water temperatures to achieve same output
• Higher output at same water temperature
Henco PEX-AL-PEX pipe has an 81% higher pressure rating than other PEX pipe
• Henco PEX-AL-PEX is rated for 145 psi at 203° F
• Other PEX is rated for 80 psi at 200° F
Cost Savings for Henco PEX-AL-PEX Installation
• Henco PEX-AL-PEX retains its shape when you uncoil it and does not try to coil back up like other PEX
• Use less staples or wire ties
• Decrease labor – less manpower or less overall time
Oxygen is an enemy of hydronic systems
• Dissolved oxygen causes corrosion to system components
• Oxygen permeates through concrete and PEX
• Other PEX tubing has oxygen barriers that are not 100% oxygen tight
• The aluminum layer provides a 100% oxygen barrier in Henco PEX-AL-PEX pipe
• PEX-AL-PEX is the only pipe that can keep oxygen levels to the Building Services Research and Intelligence Association (BSRIA) recommended levels
Henco PEX-AL-PEX pipe expands 85% less than other PEX pipe
• Henco PEX-AL-PEX expands 0.156” per 100 ft per 10° F
• Other PEX expands 1.1” per 100 ft per 10° F
• More expansion means more stress on pipe and fittings when encased in concrete
• More expansion equals ticking noises in sleeper systems or between joist installations
• As other PEX expands or contracts before concrete pour it can float up and pop out staples or flex wire grids
