Watts Radiant’s R-flex is a pre-insulated, flexible, energy-saving PEX piping system with a durable, waterproof outer cover. It provides cost-effective distribution for heating, cooling, and snow melting applications in schools, universities, resorts, housing developments, and other residential facilities.
R-flex consists of a long-lasting PEX carrier pipe or pipes surrounded by thick insulation layers, all contained in a unique double-wall outer casing for maximum protection. The use of the polyethylene foam insulation and the double-wall outer shell makes R-flex very flexible. Its flexibility, combined with its light weight, make R-flex far easier to install than rigid piping systems.

Sloan’s new ST-2459 top spud wall hung water closet is designed to maximize flushing performance in lower flushing volume applications. The universal flushing volume of the ST-2459 can accommodate any high efficiency flush volume including the newest maximum efficiency of just 1.1 gpf.
“The ability of a commercial water closet to provide peak performance lies in how well the flushometer and water closet work together as a system especially in extremely low flush volume applications that leave very little margin for error,” says Mark Lawinger, Product Line Manager – Fixtures for Sloan. “The ST-2459 hydraulics are optimized to match Sloan’s top-performing family of flushometers. Each model scores 1,000 g MaP on nearly every one of Sloan’s flushometers to meet these low flow challenges.”
This new model has an all-new look that is desired by leading architects today. It also features an increased backplate strength and higher static load capability that engineers and customers are looking for. It also features a larger water spot to minimize streaking and stains.
This model is GREEN certified by IAPMO and meets ASME 112.19.2-2013/CSA B45.1-13 standards, is Buy American Act (BAA) compliant when purchased as a combination package, meets the American with Disabilities Act Guidelines (ADA) and is compatible and Texas Accessibility Standards (TAS) compatible for all ages.

A big glass vase and a $5,000 check were given to Harley Perry of Bonita, CA on Oct. 2, upon receiving the national John Eberhardt Plumbing Contractor of Year Award from the Plumbing-Heating-Cooling Contractors Association (PHCC) and Delta Faucet Company. Perry owns and operates Perry Plumbing Heating & Air, which he started in 1977. The family-run business provides a full range of plumbing, heating and air services to both residential and commercial clients throughout San Diego County while offering eco-friendly solutions for repairing systems without negatively impacting the environment.
Perry is also president of the PHCC Academy of San Diego, a federally certified school launched in 2009 that offers two and four-year programs for apprentices and journeymen. He is also a longtime active member, board member and former president of PHCC’s San Diego chapter.
The award, named after Delta Faucet’s late senior vice president of sales and marketing, is given annually to one recipient from a national pool of nominees. Perry received the honors on Oct. 2 during a well-attended awards ceremony held during this year’s weeklong conference of the national PHCC at the Diplomat Resort and Spa in Hollywood, Florida. “I was completely surprised to have received this top honor in the nation,” says Perry. “The award hasn’t found a permanent spot yet, but it will be put somewhere in our office.” Danielle Dorsey, executive director of PHCC San Diego says the award is well-deserved. “Harley is very devoted to the success of the plumbing industry.
Knowing that the present, older generation of plumbing technicians is on the verge of retirement, his goal is to support multi-faceted students who can articulate core academic knowledge with the latest technical know-how to become qualified plumbers.”
