Plumbing away

Plastic plumbing so far has been quite easy. The crimp tool seems to work well and all of my crimps have so far passed the go/no-go test tool.

Starting with the PEX spool in one end, and pulling the pipe through the joists. If you look in the upper left you will see where the pipe comes out.

Below is the PEX crimp tool, heads of different sizes, and a de-crimp tool. Also the Go/No-Go tool.

I built a little brace where two shutoff valves will go - this will control the section of pipe for the understairs bar and the utility tub in the garage. This is directly above the H2O heater, and the phone/cable TV punchdown box, and everything else. Very busy area.

Oh, and today we got the radon system installed. It runs from the floor in the mechanical area, up to the joists, over the warm air duct, and then alongside the warm air duct to outside the house, where the fan is. Tomorrow I'll get a picture of the gear on the outside of the house.
