Manabloc FAQ's
Why Manabloc?
Less Potential for Leaks - The weakest link in any plumbing system are the fittings. Most conventional plumbing systems use rigid copper which requires many fittings. The Manabloc system uses flexible ViegaPEX tubing that connects from the distribution panel directly to the fixture with a crimp fitting. It greatly minimizes the need for fittings, and the potential for leaks. (Crimp tools are required for installation.)
Freeze Break Resistant - ViegaPEX will stretch slightly to accommodate the expansion of frozen water, then return to its original size when the water thaws. Although freeze-break resistant, no pipe is freeze-break proof under all circumstances.
Easy to Service - The Manabloc system features individually labeled shut-off valves for each distribution line. The Manabloc system is very similar in concept to the electrical system in homes. The water supply enters the Manabloc distribution panel and flows through shut-off valves to the plumbing fixtures. Electricity enters the electrical distribution panel and flows through breakers to the electrical fixtures. Now, both the electrical and plumbing systems can feature an easy to access panel to shut off power or water in case of an emergency.
Quiet Operation - The flexible ViegaPEX tubing used with the Manabloc system operates quietly. In copper systems, you often hear noise as the water flows through the pipes. Flexible ViegaPEX tubing virtually eliminates water noise.
Warranty - Most plumbing systems have no warranty at all, leaving a homeowner vulnerable should the system fail. The Viega Manabloc limited warranty is for 10 years, and covers the complete, professionally installed system including the ViegaPex tubing, Viega fittings and the Viega Manabloc from manufacturing defects. The Viega Manabloc warranty also covers reasonable replacement costs for damage to personal property, including furnishings, drywall and related items.
Cost - Even though the Viega Manabloc system features all these benefits over copper systems, the Manabloc system can usually be installed for much less than a copper system!
