Pex vs. copper
By: WNY On: Thu Feb 11, 2010 8:21 am
I tried Pex, but didn't like it, so I put in Copper.....(just kidding). I found these when researching piping systems on the 'net.

WOW!! The contrast is unbelievable. Do you know the owner of the first piping pic? Always black iron or copper manifolds at a minimum........piping is another story. Seems like copper is going to be darned near as valuable as gold....well not quite. 
PS: Hope the guy who did the first install isn't a heart surgeon or a brain surgeon! There is some chance he is a member of the current 'treasury expertise team', however.

When pex gets to 180 degrees, it's softer than a sneaker full of baby poo-poo. Hangers would have helped, but at least pex-al-pex, properly supported.......would have met the 'appearance quotient!
I know, it is in operation at this moment, so please don't reveal the owner!!!!
How do you like working with the hopper on your hybrid? Still need an auger changeover to make you 'complete?'
I guessing you have never been so comfortable at such an affordable price.
I may be headed your way next week, but this time I'll give you a heads-up as to when. D

I tried moonlighting as a plumber after I left the bar last week -- I see you've found my work!

I love the poly rope hanger for the tank and air scoop in the first pic.
