QUOTE(PJusa @ Jan 9 2014, 11:59 PM) better as - not sure. but i use polybutelene pipes. no creeping and very good so far (6 yrs+). zero complaints and high temp & pressure resistance. Copper is a good heat conductor, it dissipate the heat to the wall and you can feel the wall very warm. That's why seeking for alternative. How's the price for polybutelene pipes. Last i checked copper pipe 20' length = rm85. |
