Flexible vs. rigid copper tubing

Posted by Matt on December 02, 2003 at 11:19:26:
I need to run some plumbing in the floor, cutting through several joists. I don't want to notch out and lay in rigid pipe, nor do I want to sweat several 12" sections together with all those unions. I was thinking I would use flex tubing. I would need it to handle 3/4" supply lines (both H and C) as well as a 1/2" run for the reciriculating line. Anyone have an opinion? Ever had to do something similar? Thanks, Matt
