PB pipe

know, anyway) I have not had any problems...BUT...Is there a possibility that I won't have any problems with this kind of pipe?

have no real knowledge of what problems I may face in the future.

opposed to the pipe itself.

I would and did replace mine with PEX. I installed the PB myself using reusable fittings. I really liked it as I frequently make changes around this old farm house that did have galvanized pipes. All went well for many years, then I added a chlorinator in an attempt to make the water safer since a neighbor had built 10 huge chicken houses next door and my water started to test bad.

Some few years after that I started to get splits in the PB pipes. Not sure if it was the age or chlorine that caused the splits. After a few of those I replaced all the PB with PEX using the same reusable fittings that had been on the PB. Not had any more problems.

I read about the fittings/connectors being the problem but I think it is the PB tubing.

I think most people use a crimp on fitting system but I did not. I have never had a removable fitting fail, just the PB tubing but always near a fitting so may be the fitting is somehow damaging the tubing.
