Email. Polybutylene piping is a form of plastic resin and was commonly used for plumbing U.S. homes built between 1978 and 1995. Due to its inexpensive production cost and ability to withstand high water pressure, it was widely seen as a better, cheaper alternative to copper plumbing.nfortunately, if there are polybutylene pipes within the home, or leading into the home, the best course of action is to replace the pipes entirely by hiring a re-pipe specialist. An expert can assess the current plumbing, replace the pipes and expertly patch up any holes.
My name is Craig and in this video I will show you how to correctly use SharkBite to Polybutylene Conversion Couplings. Polybutylene pipe was introduced into the USA some 30 years ago and due to subsequent failures it is now unavailable. However, many thousands of dwellings were installed with polybutylene and still require maintenance today. SharkBite conversion couplings are specifically engineered to polybutylene pipe specifications. The SharkBite conversion coupling will convert polybutylene to any copper tube size (CTS), such as copper, PEX, or CPVC. The pipe end can only be used on polybutylene pipe. Remove as much of the polybutylene pipe as possible to minimize or eliminate possible future failures.
