Installing PEX compressed air system #33 Doing It Dan’s Way

Installing PEX compressed air system #33 Doing It Dan’s Way
Daniel Woodell
This video show how I instead my compressed air system using PEX piping and Fittings. I realize that the PEX I used is not mean for this but I did a little research and I came to the conclusion that this will work for my me. I also tested the system to 170PSI witch is much higher than I will ever run the system t normal. I don’t recommend doing this unless you have a general understanding of how PEX works.
If you have any questions about the system feel free to leave a comment. How every if you’re just going to tell me I should not have used PEX for compressed air, go troll some other YouTube channel.

  1. Plumber from NJ your allowed to use air on pex pipe but only for inspections… i have been using it for 7 yrs plus for airlines and condensation tee

  2. By any chance were you using Pex A or Pex B? I know Pex A has a thicker wall and should hold a higher Psi. My compressor is rated at 150 Psi and Pex B is easier to find at you big box stores, so will Pex B hold??

  3. This is awesome! Literally just googled the exact words of the title of your video bc I have a bunch of pex leftover from a project and wanted to use it for air drops as well… saw this video and it just helped validate my thoughts along with some other research but I am with you my friend, I just don't see why this wouldn't hold up just like any other plastic tubing out there used for air lines… so long as you keep it protected from uv since that will deteriorate it…
    Great video tho and thx for the info! Looks great btw!
    Cheers!

  4. Ps. Stop being so damn insecure and constantly defending your choices, just rep your shit and post it, let the haters hate… your install looks good and clearly works for you, that's all that matters…
    Thanks again

  5. What's funny is you say that paix is not supposed to be used for air pressure, but there's another video where a plumber said that paix is all that is used in current air systems. I plan on using it as well.
