I didn't use any SharkBites in my RV (yet).
I would not hesitate to use them, I've had them on my home heating system for 15 years with no problems.

I use the similar Watts and Sea Tech push-on fittings and have never had a failure to date.

I have used numerous ones. Make sure the ones you get are the releasable style.

You'll be fine. The only rewason I don't use them is I have PEX tools ($$$).
