PEX floating away. But you should put your disclaimers with Kitec not just PB as I originally claimed or intended.
If you're not going to pay attention don't listen. Happy Mday
I myself was not aware of Kitec piping untill you posted Joseph...

Thank You...

No. PEX tubing does not contain aluminum.

Kitec consists of plastic-coated aluminum piping joined to brass fittings.


PEX is cross-linked polyethylene, which is a polymer of ethylene; especially : any of various partially crystalline lightweight thermoplastics (CH2CH2)
