TracPipePS™ is the Underground Choice. patent-pending

TracPipePS is Pre-Sleeved with polyethylene for underground use, such as under building slabs and other locations where sleeved piping is required by code. TracPipePS is also used on rooftop installations, where an additional measure of protection is needed. It will save you both time and money over piping underground with rigid black pipe, sleeved or wrapped.

• Available pre-sleeved in 100-ft coils with heat shrink cuffs
• Sizes up to 2 inches
• Vent tees are available to enable outdoor venting, required when running gas piping under slabs and beneath buildings
• Underground TracPipePS is used for all below grade gas piping applications, such as pool/spa heaters, garage/out building systems, center island cook-tops, ranges, and under slab systems for schools, laboratories, multi-family construction, fast-food restaurants and any other gas piping which is placed underground.
• See Design and Installation Guide for complete information on TracPipePS.

The original design for the ground floor science laboratories in this new middle school specified rigid black pipe. The under slab portions of this piping system require both sleeving and outdoor venting per the National Fuel Gas Code requirements. The choice to substitute TracPipePS was made because of the built-in venting feature. The gas piping was routed between lab table locations, and venting connections were “daisy chained” with accessory vent tees. The vent system was routed outdoors through the interior block walls. The use of flexible TracPipePS saved thousands of dollars over sleeved rigid black pipe. The time saved permitted pouring of the slab floor on schedule.
