There are a number of various ways to connect PEX - sharkbite
While expensive, Sharkbite is gods gift to handy men. If I was a plumber and doing it for a living I would get a good crimper and use the cheaper crimp rings, but for fix-it and occasional work, you are money ahead just using sharkbite!
I plumbed in new washing machine hookups in my house with PEX and SharkBite, I am fully comfortable with copper and sweating pipes, but it would have taken me hours to plumb it that way, I hooked up with PEX and SharkBite in less than 15min for hot and cold runs both of 20+ feet!!
I should keep some in my TT for on the road fixes ;-)
