only time will tell

it probably wont be for another 5-15 years
before all hell breaks loose,,,

My best guess is it wil be starting with the crimping ring type pex..

they are already having problems with the radiant systems and lawsuits
seem to be on the horizion......something to do with the chlorine
in the open looped systems breaking down the pipe.....

but once the high
clorine levels in the water starts to breaks the in home
common stuff down then everyone will be very, very busy.

I am wanting to see what Claifornia does
about the high levels of benzine leeching
into the water systems from the plastic.


as long as you arent on the train,

its kinda fun to watch a train wreck, aint it??.
