Default Rehau manifold with Wirsbo PEX

My neighbor and I have gone 'halves' purchasing a Wirsbo expander tool. He's got a new install of even length runs in cement. He doesn't need to balance his runs, so his manifolds (supply/return) are just unrestricted 3/4" pipe off a 1" pipe. I'm doing a refurb from forced air to hot water, so I'm using radiators with close, but still slightly imbalanced runs to my various zones. Can I use a Rehau circuit balancing manifold with Wirsbo PEX? If, so could you detail the transition coupling please. Thanks, Mike

Default What kind of balancing manifold for Wirsbo HePEX

I will have some unbalanced runs to different radiator zones. Could I please get some suggestions as regards to my choosing a supply/return manifold. I plan on using Wirsbo Hepex, with the Uponor expansion tool.

Best Regards,
Mike Warner
