plumbing parts

About to begin running the water lines for the shower and kitchen sink in the Casita.  Looking forward to using PEX tubing and fittings for the first time.  63,80,39,0,B

A practical question:

How did you decide to use PEX ?

I respect your knowledge and capabilities.

I have never used PEX; I have considerable experience with PVC and copper.

Thanks.

I too have considerable experience with PVC and copper...but decided on PEX because it is cheaper and easier and I finally found an excuse to try it.

I understand the crimp tool for the PEX rings are pretty expensive? What do you think?

The crimp tool for copper rings is a little pricey...but I am using stainless steel cinch rings. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MLHR8CS/
