PEX tubing and fittings. The only way to go.
Many people seem to agree. I was trying to make the point that this is
not true within one foot of a Shurflo pump. Their instructions say:
" SHURflo recommends at least 1 ft of 1/2" I.D. flexible high pressure
tubing to both ports. Ideally the pumps ports/strainer should not be
connected to plastic or rigid pipe." Additionally on the illustration
they show "1/2" I.D. FLEXIBLE BRAIDED (high psi) TUBING 12 INCH LENGTHS"
These are shown being connected to the pump with stainless steel hose
clamps. I mentioned this in case Kathy or anyone was re-using a water
pump but did not have the installation instructions.
