This is the second inaccurate thermometer I have received from Pex Supply. This unit does not advance beyond 120F. I have an accurate meter to verify the readings.

Comments about Mr. PEX Strap-On Pipe Thermometer for 1/2"-4" Pipe (70-200F):

These guages are not very accurate even with the use of thermal grease. They read significantly lower temperatures when the water temperatures are above 160 degrees. They are easily moved when positioned. The only nice feature is that they can be moved to deterrmine relative temperatures in a system.

I ordered five, three worked OK, two refunded promptly.
The three don't jibe exactly, but are certainly close enough for what they're for.

Comments about Mr. PEX Strap-On Pipe Thermometer for 1/2"-4" Pipe (70-200F):

After 2 weeks on backorder, I received an "updated" version of this unit. The temperature scale reads from 0F to 248F, unlike the original unit.. 70F to 200F, and the maximum pipe-fit diameter decreased a lot. When strapped directly next to the temperature gauge on my heating boiler that read 190F, this unit read 140F.. so I question the accuracy of using this or ANY strap-on style thermometer. Maybe the pipes do not get as hot as the water inside, since the surrounding air is so much cooler. Who knows for sure?

I use this on my hot water solar system. It is proving to be the excellent indicator that I need to fine tune the adjustments I need to make to the system.

Nice Thermometers!

Comments about Mr. PEX Strap-On Pipe Thermometer for 1/2"-4" Pipe (70-200F):

I bought these to install on the heat runs for radiant floor heat. I installed them on bare 1" copper pipe. The installl took maybe a minute for both thermometers. No sure of the accuracy because they are contact temperature of the pipe. Adding a little pipe insulation around the thermometrs seems to help. But to get the temperature difference of supply and return these will work great.

We are currently setting up a new heating system. This product is a great way to check and verify the water temperature in the heating pipes on both the supply and return. Best part is you can move them around easily if needed.

  A:
  It can be, and is, used on either or both.

- A:
  This unit will read the temperature on the SURFACE of anything that it's strapped on to. The temperature INSIDE the piping may be significantly different. If the pipe material doesn't conduct "heat" very well, the readings may be meaningless.

- A:
  Will not work well with plastic pipe (plastics have poor conductivity) but will work well with metal pipe.
