Water Line Replacement
It seems that I did not get all of the water out of the main water lines last fall. Found the main 1/2" lines cracked and useless. I am going to replace them but was wondering if there was a "better" ...

ksbowman, I had a leak in my PEX plumping when I bought my 5ver. the dealer came out and cut all the pex connectors off ( I think the crimping tool at the factory was bad)and replaced them with radiator clamps (easier and cheaper for them) since then I have had to replaced them with the proper PEX clamps because the radiator clamps would loosen up. Home Depot carries the PEX clamping rings, both the ring and the pinch type, along with the crimping tool for both. I used the pinch type.
I will never buy, or rent, pex crimpers or clamps as long as there are Shark Bite fittings on the market. (you know I wouldn't lead you a stray Steve).
