Uponor Class Action May Be an Option for Property Owners with Failing Plumbing Fittings

Property owners who experienced water damage due to the failure of Uponor Pex brass plumbing fittings may be able to participate in an Uponor class action lawsuit to seek compensation for damages. Allegedly, these brass plumbing fittings can fail prematurely, possibly months after installation, and property owners who have suffered water damage as a result of Uponor Pex failure may have legal recourse. If you have experienced problems with your Uponor Pex plumbing fittings, visit http://www.classaction.org/uponor-pex-plumbing-fittings.html and complete the no cost, no obligation form on the right to find out if you may be eligible for an Uponor class action lawsuit. 

A putative Uponor class action against the company and RTI, a related company, alleges that the brass fittings were incorrectly designed and manufactured. Reportedly, plumbing fittings may experience Uponor Pex failure when they are exposed to water due to a chemical reaction which causes leaks and reduced water floor. Uponor Pex brass plumbing fittings which are affected by this chemical reaction not only cause damage when they leak or bust, but may also hinder the plumbing system’s ability to distribute water to fixtures and appliances. The brass plumbing fittings which may be prone to Uponor Pex failure are inserted into cross linked polyethylene (PEX) tubing and are marked with “P Pex” or “MB Pex” on the side. 

If your business or home has suffered water damage due to Uponor Pex failure, you may be able to join an Uponor class action lawsuit to recover financial compensation. Potentially, an Uponor class action lawsuit would allow property owners the chance to collectively bring a claim in court seeking compensation for damage caused by water leaks.
