[KAYE RIVERCITY]

.....you all can get away with just good old Home Depot Hot water hose[5/8" white or blue stuff with the braid] and regular garden hose fittings or hose clamps....35 psi is what you usually run in your system anyway....much more pressure will not make a real differance as the openings are very small in most of the appliances >1/4" and with drains you can use clear vinal make a p-trap or a u-trap -that way you can see the clog and just squish it with your hand on the outside to free it up...pex/Quest is very hard to find on a Sunday or over a holiday weekend when things go pop/drip/squirt......think repairs and ease of maintenance-when building your own.....forget copper pipe except ball valves and use a hose barb and clamp to attach an in-line valve.....plastic valves are made by the Devil and have more problems than teenagers......geofkaye
