PEX (cross-linked polyethylene) is a popular choice for polybutylene replacement due to its flexibility, durability, and resistance to corrosion and freezing.

Manufactured Home Poly Replacement in Columbus, NE

Manufactured homes from the poly era often have polybutylene lines in the floor or belly. We replace these lines with PEX sized for manufactured homes and secure them properly underneath. We also check heat tape and insulation on exposed lines where winter freezes occur. Hard freezes are a normal part of winter in Nebraska, and bitter wind chills can freeze pipes in poorly insulated spaces quickly. The result is a reliable, modern supply system.
