Press Solutions
WHY PRESS?
Press is a method of joining pipe that uses force to make a connection, eliminating the need to solder, groove, braze, thread or weld. Utilizing only three short steps, connections can be completed up to 50% faster than traditional methods and involve no open flame. Most importantly, press eliminates the need to drain and dry a system, enabling fast, professional repairs and increased productivity on service calls.
