After a nearly two-year evaluation, the NIRON PP-RCT pipe and fittings system has passed the rigorous Massachusetts approval process for plastic piping.

NIRON has received unrestricted approval for "commercial plumbing applications, potable water."

The awarding of certification from Massachusetts is a significant milestone for the product.

"With its extensive review and certification process, Massachusetts is looked at favorably by other states across the country," said Chip Curtis, a NIRON and plastic piping product expert with the F.W. Webb Co., which is the exclusive supplier of NIRON in the Northeast. "When Massachusetts determines a system is satisfactory, many other states are willing to accept their findings."

Suitable for many commercial projects, NIRON PP-RCT can be used for plumbing and HVAC systems, conveyance of drinking water and alimentary fluids, and movement of compressed air, gas and chemicals. It is lightweight, available in sizes from ½- to 24-inch, and can be joined using a choice of four fusion methods. Able to withstand high temperatures and is chemical resistance, the durable NIRON piping systems has a tested lifespan of more than 100 years. It comes with a 30-year warranty.
