Cold Weather Plumbing
Ernie (& the Forum members), I have decided to go ahead & rework all the
plumbing in the PT. The low temps this winter have been a contributing
factor to starting this work. I know that PEX is widely used today for
Hot & Cold lines. Ernie, I recall you saying that you used PEX in
yours? Which brand or mfg. did you decide upon? Some are available
with brass fittings and/or compression fittings vs clamps. Which did
you choose? Also, to rid the coach of the different size of copper
lines, I plan to use just one size of water line. Is 1/2" adequate for
everything in your experience? Will use something smaller for the ice
maker line I guess.

And finally did you wrap your PEX lines with any heat tapes to protect them?
