  1. I want to do this to my hoiuse, but I have ground wires on the cold water line from the meter. Does Pex negate needing the wires at that point now from the meter? thanks

  2. Just asking your opinion. For some reason I seem to trust shark bite connections more. The crimp seems a bit cheesy to me. Probably I am wrong. I have used shark bite for 4 years now. They seem to be excellent. I know they cost more but I don’t care. I trust them. I have used probably 30 or so for me and my friends and a few other people. Never had a problem. Even used as main shut off valve. What is your view. You have great advise. Thanks Paul

  3. Good job and it looks good to me but they say your supposed to have like 18” of metal off the water heaters cold &hot water connectors before you go to péx but I’ve seen others use pex as you did even had it even closer without a valve they went pex right to the male nipple on the tank seems fine to me but I’m getting ready to change my tank and I keep seeing that ya need 18” of metal before u go to pex well what about cpvc?

  4. Hey Al. Are there area’s that you can’t use pex off the water heater. Or is there a minimum of copper before you can use pex pipe. Thanks. On of your biggest fans. Paul
