Alupex in shorter lengths

[Krokkodriljo]

I need a few meters of insulated Alupex 16mm (e.g. https://www.dinvvsbutik.se/sv/artiklar/lk-u-ror-a16x29mm-i.html but another brand is fine) but can only find it in 50 m lengths.

Does anyone know where to get shorter lengths? I would think there must be quite a bit left over from various projects.

Does it have to be exactly 16 mm? I think I might have some 20 mm pieces left. I can go check in the storage if you want. It's Uponor AluPEX in that case.

Buy pipes and insulate yourself?

Yes, it must be 16 mm as I need to replace the existing ones that have burst due to freezing. Thanks anyway!

Hm, yes that might not be a bad idea. You can buy 10 m without insulation. I'll look into that. Thanks!

Does it have to be alupex then? Hornbach sells regular PEX by the meter. They might also sell alupex. They also have prisol if you prefer that.

The 16mm hose that HORNBACH sells by the meter is a floor heating hose PN6. In shorter lengths, there is 15mm bare hose in 5 and 10 meters or 15 meters pipe within a pipe.
