Residential Plumbing Systems
MANABLOC® Water Distribution System
Vanguard's patented MANABLOC system offers 21st century effectiveness in management of water distribution. The
MANABLOC provides equalized flow and pressure throughout the plumbing system.

Each plumbing fixture is served by a dedicated distribution line from a central manifold. In a properly designed system, the
MANABLOC has been shown to offer savings in water and energy usage. Installed with Vanguard Vanex tubing, the
MANABLOC is ideal for new or retrofit residential or light commercial plumbing applications.
DuraTempTM CPVC Products
Impact resistant DuraTemp CPVC tubing is manufactured using advanced extrusion and laser technology. While conventional
CPVC tubing inside diameters can vary as much as .040", DuraTemp standard allow only a .010" variation* which is 75% more
accurate.

DuraTemp also offers impressive corrosion and condensation resistance, quiet flow, heat retention and purity, high impact
resistance and dimensional control in hot and cold water applications. The DuraTemp line includes a wide variety of CPVC
fittings, adapters, accessories and tools.
Vanex PEX Products
Vanex PEX is poised to become the plumbing industry's new piping standard. In Vanex and VanexPlus, you now have a new,
better alternative for hot and cold water distribution systems. Made from cross-linked polyethylene (PEX), Vanex tubing is
flexible, durable and proven through 20 years of use throughout Europe. It is a natural replacement for polybutylene pipe or an
excellent alternative to rigid plumbing systems.
Cross-linking is a permanent chemical change that occurs in Vanex, giving it these advantages over other piping materials:
Vanex is flexible and can be installed with fewer fittings, in less time and at less expense than many rigid plumbing systems.
Vanex can stretch to accommodate the expansion of freezing water and then return to its original size when the water thaws.
Although Vanex is highly freeze-resistant, no material is freeze-break proof.
Vanex offers superior chemical and environmental stress crack resistance.
Everything for Installation

Vanguard offers a complete selection of fittings, tools and accessories for the proper
installation of Vanguard piping, tubing and
MANABLOC systems. The hand-held, full-circle crimping tool is easier to carry, easier to
use in close quarters and available from Vanguard.
A selection of brass directional fittings is available as well as the Plumb Plus fittings line,
a simple, two-step, no-crimp/no-mess system that connects polybutylene, copper, CPVC
and PEX.
