I have purchased a Hardy H2 and now I need to determine which water lines to use. I have read some about it but would like some more input on Pex vrs. Pex-al-Pex. The perks of using Pex is the price, but it expands as it is heated. Pex-al-Pex is more expensive but easier to use and i would think is a stronger product due to the aluminum that is inside, but i have heard about some of it failing over time due to it having multiple different layers. Also if you are using Pex-al-Pex which brand did you choose (i read about some issues on Kitec)?
As for insulating and installing it....i plan to use SDR-35 sewer pipe since it is water tight, and i plan to put the 4 lines together and then install the pipe insulation sleeve around all of them. I want to be able to remove the lines/boiler and move to the next house so spray foam is out of the question for me.
Tell me your thoughts.
