Water Leaks!

[Tom Warner]

Pex tubing works nicely IF you get the correct product , have the
correct tools to cut (has to be clean and perfectly square to prevent
leaks) and install it. There are two different general kinds of Pex
tubing that which is coated and does not pass oxygen and that
without coating which does. In addition not all Pex tubing can be
used for potable water purposes unless it is marked with a laboratory
seal and/or words to the effect that it is safe to use for potable
water purposes. For your purposes I would think the straight lengths
would be best and easiest to use.
