Pex Copper
Pex Pipe Vs Fixed Pipe - The Pros & Cons
Pex pipe nowadays is preferred by most of the homebuilders for their plumbing systems in their homes. This is because this piping system has certain advantages that prove to be quite cost-effective that is both time and energy saving. However, at the same time the traditional fixed piping system such as the copper pining, PVC piping systems cannot be completely ruled out when it comes to installing plumbing system in your home. This type of plumbing system also has its share of advantage that can prove to be quite beneficial for the homebuilders.
Leakage problems
When it comes to leakage problem pex tubing is regarded as a better option in comparison to the copper and the PVC piping system. PEX can last longer than the PVC and the copper material and so is less prone to leakage and other breakage problems. They can continue to work well even in extreme temperatures. The only drawback to PEX in this regard is that is that you cannot run it in a straight line for a longer stretch. As such you need extra clips for its attachments. However, when it comes to plumbing work in cemented areas, the copper and the PVC piping are preferred over the pex tube. The pex tubes in this regard as considered will yield less productivity in cement surfaces.
Cost effectiveness
When it comes to installation PEX is considered to be easier to install. The pex pipe is flexible in nature and so it can be easily bent over or around any obstructing matter. In this way its saves from investing in additional joints and elbows for plumbing purposes. This is not the case in the other fixed plumbing systems.
On the other hand, copper piping generally corrodes easily and can also break and freeze during the winter months. As such, the traditional copper piping can lead to a big hole in your pocket when it comes to maintenance; whereas, pex plumbing is generally strong and has a longer durability. However unlike the copper and PVC piping, pex tube tends to wear out faster when used in the outdoor areas of your home.
Time management
In comparison to PVC and copper piping system, Pex pipe system can be installed much quicker and faster. Whereas, copper piping runs together and is a literally a difficult task to install them since you need to first know how to solder them. Besides, since each line in the pex tubing is independent to the incoming water source it is also quite easier to drain the system by just turning off each segment.
After comparing all these pros and cons of the both pex pipe system and the fixed piping system you can consider accordingly which tubing system to go for, in view of the plumbing requirements of your household.

Good resource on PEX pipes for plumbing purposes?
I've heard that PEX (Poly-Ethylene Xylene) piping is very good for plumbing purposes because it can freeze with water inside and have no problems/burstings.
I need an intellectual resource that will tell me the prices to look for (I'm cost-conscious, not cheap),
any special needs PEX may have (ie, maybe it needs a special bonding agent),
common problems when running PEX inside an existing structure (that was originally built for copper),
how to identify the quality of PEX,
what sizes of PEX are useful for what applications (I have limited PVC experience, so equating the two might be best).
And yes, some fries would also be cool. As long as they're warm.
Thanks.
