PEX piping vs CPVC piping
PEX and CPVC cost relatively about the same. But there are a few reasons why PEX pipe plumbing may be the better choice. First of all, PEX doesn’t require glue, which means you don’t have to work in well-ventilated spaces or having to wear a respirator. PEX pipes are less likely than CPVC pipes for bursting if they freeze. Also, since PEX pipes are more flexible and are available in long lengths, it can work better for “fishing” through walls in remodeling situations.
Our plumbers have the experience to help aid you in decisions of what would be the most durable and cost efficient piping for all of your plumbing needs. Get in touch, for a free estimate for your PEX piping installation, replacement, or repair services!
PEX piping advantages over copper:
- PEX is less expensive than copper. Half-inch PEX tubing costs about a third the price of copper pipes. Some of the savings can be offset by the need for a special tool to install the fittings, but if you’re doing a medium to large plumbing job, you’ll usually save by using PEX piping instead of copper.
- PEX pipes won’t corrode like copper. If you live in an area with acidic water, copper pipes can corrode over time. PEX pipes are also unaffected by acidic water and is therefore a better choice in these areas.
- PEX is faster to install than copper. If you use a manifold and “home-run” system, it’s like running a garden hose to each fixture, becoming super fast and easy. But even if you install PEX in a conventional main line and branch system, the connections are much quicker to make than soldering copper.
