Solar Decathlon Winner and Two Additional Homes Feature Uponor PEX Plumbing Systems
Two other Solar Decathlon homes also featured Uponor: sixth-place Southern California Institute of Architecture (SCI-Arc) and California Institute of Technology (Caltech) team, and ninth-place Team Massachusetts, which included Massachusetts College of Art and Design and the University of Massachusetts at Lowell. Both homes featured Uponor for the plumbing and the fire suppression systems.
Dick Rhodes, sales manager at Taze & Hewitt, helped coordinate the plumbing product donation from Uponor for the University of Maryland WaterShed house. “To be part of a great effort to increase the awareness of solar energy is very important to us,” says Rhodes. “I was very impressed by the students’ involvement in the design and construction of the project. They all took great pride in their work and that’s great to see.” Uponor manufacturer representative Urell, Inc. and distributor The Granite Group helped to coordinate the Uponor donation for the University of Massachusetts house. The California team received their product directly from Uponor. “It was nice to see so many other manufacturers, distributors and contractors in our area who donated their time and materials,” says Rhodes. “Ferguson was a great contributor, and a local plumbing and heating contractor, Fred Werth of Kensington Plumbing and Heating, volunteered a lot of his personal time to assisting the Maryland team as well.” Uponor, Inc. is a leading supplier of plumbing, fire safety, and radiant heating and cooling systems for the residential and commercial building markets in the United States. Uponor, Inc. employs 380 people at its North American headquarters in Apple Valley, Minn. For more information, visit www.uponor-usa.com or call (800) 321-4739.
