Garage piping help
« on: October 17, 2011 - 03:00:17 PM »
Hey guys,

I'm thinking of getting one of the two kits and would like your opinions. I know they are both pricey. I have copper now and I don't want to use PVC, gal pipe or black pipe. Your thoughts on these two products is appreciated. If you know of another quick connect system I would be interested in that as well. I will be using 3/4" tubing. Thanks



Kit - M7500

Were moving and I wanted something quicker.  I'd rather be working on the cars.

IMO... those are slick looking systems but I would think too many places for a potential leak? Welding sparks burning holes though.... age make plastic brittle?.... impacts ?
The K.I.S.S. method might come into play? copper pipe is pretty durable. easy to repair/install?
