Contractors (some) love the stuff because it assembles very quickly. Just bid as if you are doing copper and the extra hours saved is just additional $$ in the pocket.[/quote]
maybe… I’m on the HOA board of an early 1980s condo complex and we spend a lot of money on plumbing. the re-routes are all PEX.
I use shark bite fittings when I cannot wait for the whole building to drain in order to solder copper. I’ve use shop vac to suck water out of pipes, but that means I have to solder quickly. I’m slooowww.
You know, when you have a whole building out of water, the residents are all up in arms and want water restored fast.[/quote]
