PEX for plumbing vs traditional PVC

[dallas reefer]

Y'all make no sense. And evidently you think it only , lol, applies to irrigation.

No one uses spa flex for irrigation too by the way. Flex PVC is different than spa flex

Look at the pics I sent. The Spa-flex is the curved tubing with the little lines you see connected to regular PVC fittings with glue. I've been installing tanks with this material for over 15 years. Maybe we are talking about 2 different things? To anyone that knows what I'm talking about, I DO MAKE SENSE!

And flexible PVC can be found very cheap on amazon. I 50ft of 1" super flex for just under $50.

Your finding seemed too good to be true, lol.
I just looked up on Amazon for "super flex PVC ", the only hose that popped up was a pool vacuum type of hose. This is not what I'm talking about. What I am talking about can be found on Amazon, but under Spa-flex PVC. I found 50 ft of 3/4" for under $50. But the 1" was around $150 for 100ft. So I figure about $75 for 50 ft is more like it, if not pass me the link you saw?

I take that back, sorry. I found it in another link at $44.95 for 50ft of 1", so you are right bro and thanks. Next time I'll know where to buy! Anyone interested flexiblePVC.net. They even carry the new ultra flexible PVC, awesome stuff!

 

[dallas reefer]

lol ok bro. You tha man. You know all. lol

similar to this. No "kink-free" ribs like your stuff or the spa flex. much more flexible. No "spring-back" properties.

How much is this flo lock Dallas reefer? And how many do you need for a build? Not following your lead, in this case you need to follow, but I'll be glad to get out of your way and let you burn your own path of knowledge, lol!

 

[dallas reefer]

Look here "fireboy" Google works miracles in the form of knowledge. Use it. Don't get stuck to one way of ... Doing things.

 

[dallas reefer]

Cheers

 

[Rjramos]

I think most will agree, not gonna lead, not gonna follow, gonna get out of your way right now. Done!

 

[dallas reefer]

Bye now

So color determines price? Ok. Guess that's not too bad of a price.

I am a plumber by trade. Been doing it for 15 years. There are plastic pex fittings. Use the plastic fittings and stainless steel cinch rings. Cinch rings all use 1 tool from 1”-3/8”. The tool is only $18 on Amazon.

There are pleaty of non-brass John Guest fittings for PEX
John Guest® PEX Pipe and Fittings Category | PEX Pipe, PEX Pipe Fittings and PEX Fittings. | U.S. Plastic Corp.

I want to say think you for mentioning the John guest fittings 7 years after you did. I ran leftover PEX from my basement. Finishing behind my wall for a new build but had no idea what to do about fittings. Savior.
