    PEX Re-pipe
    Looking for info on how a PEX re-pipe is suppose to look. I'm re-piping through the attic and intend to use a manibloc but have no idea what it should look like.

    Hi Bcountry44:

    Here is a few pictures of how some people have arranged the manibloc system. I vote for the nice neat one in the 2nd pic..

    Be sure to count up your fixtures and then add a few extra connections for the future... ;)

    I hope you are in a no-freeze zone if you plan to run all this from the attic... yes?

    Thanks for the pics. I was planning on using j-clamps on the rafters. Interesting how they drilled holes in the studs. Yes I'm in Kalifornia so freezing not an issue.
