I just purchased a foreclosure and spent the summer renovating from top to bottom. I am planning to live in this house. Its on a slab, and all of the copper was stripped out of the house before we bought it. We ran pex through the walls. There is one area where we had to run the pex overhead. There is a 7 foot section above the ceiling of the back room that we had no other option but to run the pex through. That room has a flat roof above it. The entire home is insulated, except the 7 foot by 1 foot path where the pex runs through the ceiling. The path had blown in insulation, but that fell out when my guy cut the ceiling to run the pipe through. He finished the drywall after, but failed to put insulation back(unbeknownst to me). I am scheduled to move this week, and he dropped this little number on me yesterday. I live in Northwest Ohio, and we get a fair bit of cold weather here. So, what are the opinions? Will this short run be a problem, or will I most likely not have to worry about it? Thanks
