I've been exploring different options for a repipe. I saw today that the blue store carries a Version (Watts) of push type connections like a Sharkbite.
The orange store carries Qestpex fittings (compression type)
Any thoughts on these?
Copper is too damn $$$ and it looks like PEX tubing is now the pretty much the same price as CPVC. So it comes down to the fittings.
I'm thinking that with the PEX, I can make a solid run with no couplings, from the source to the first fixture. So that would mean only one connection on each end.
Anyway, back to my question.......What are you're thoughts on some of these connections?
