Sharkbite is still new in Aus, I'm not a fan of it, yet. We're in maintenance a lot and I reckon that it might be a bit of an issue in years to come.
I'm all for PEX
PEX is the future, you still need copper for outdoor applications but underneath joists and walls PEX is the way to go. Plus those manifolds make everything easy especially if you got the $ to use shark bite fittings. This project I will be using 98% PEX.
Yep! I've had to redo leaking brazed joins and press copper joints but never had a leaking PEX join.
