Qest Polybutylene Plumbing in San Diego

Emory Plumbing of San Diego - Trust The Man In The Yellow Van!

Qest, or polybutylene, plumbing was a popular water supply system in the 1970’s and 1980’s. Polybutylene pipe is sometimes called PB or Poly-B pipe, and is easily identifiable. It is non-rigid, usually grey but sometimes silver or black, plastic pipe. It is not PVC or CPVC, which is a rigid white or off-white plastic pipe. Sold under the popular names Qest, Thermogaurd, and Flex-Temp, it has been used in approximately six million mobile homes, apartments, houses and other structures throughout the United States.

By the late 1980’s, a significant number of PB plumbing systems began to experience problems with leaky fittings. The system was therefore discontinued, and although this type of plumbing is no longer available for new installations, Emory Plumbing carries the materials needed to repair this type of plumbing. We also have the experience needed to perform a total re-pipe or replacement of Qest systems if you would like to update your plumbing at a fair price.
