Interviewer: Rick, my plumber says though they’ve been using PEX in Europe for years. What are your thoughts on that?
Rick: Well, that’s a common statement that’s being bantered around, but the reality is it has been used in Europe for over 50 years but a majority of it is used in hydronics, which is heating in the floors and ceilings where they actually create a manifold or a radiator if you will and run warm water through it to heat your place.
A majority of that is not used in potable water. So that’s a little bit of a bending of a statement. I also see people talking about giving you Grade A PEX, the very best. But it’s not Grade A, it’s Type A or Type B or Type C, all of which are completely different formulas and completely different extrusion processes. All of which have their benefits and their detriments.
Are all Pex tubing the same? Not really.
Pex and copper are the two repiping solutions most used in Southern California. But you don’t need to replumb at all in some cases. Just fix the pinhole leak and change the water chemistry.
Pex and water heater can work together. Pex for heating is the most common use in Europe but not for drinking water. Pex for plumbing is quick and easy method that plumbers love.
Pex or copper?
We think copper is better for a number of reasons.
Copper lasts a lot longer and doesn’t have plastic leeching issues. Pex tubing is an alternative to copper piping. If you believe this is important to know about before you make a big replumbing decision, Share the video with others.
