The water supply distribution system consists of pipelines that help get water and wastewater from point A to B. Purging air from the pipeline is necessary because trapped air significantly reduces pump and/or pipeline efficiency and life.

When planning out one’s next outdoor project, the preferred process of providing natural gas or propane to certain outdoor appliances must be taken into consideration.

PEX (cross-linked polyethylene) tubing was invented in 1968 by a German scientist named Thomas Engle and introduced to the U.S. around 1980.
