Aloha, has anyone had success with using PEX? Some of the plumbers I have spoke with say that rats like to chew it. I was hoping to save on labor costs and potential leaks by using the pre sleeved kind under my concrete slab and stubbing up into the wall. I see this method a lot on commercial job sites. The plastic tube that the pex is ran in creates a buffer between the pex and the concrete which would be beneficial in earthquakes and I have even seen damaged lines get re pulled after the slab is poured.
