Default How to block UV from PEX

Anyone have recommendations on how to block UV light from the PEX
tubing in my basement? All PEX runs are bundled and run just under
the ceiling joists, but I have three large windows that let in quite a
bit of light. I will eventually build a soffit to isolate these
pipes, but want an interim solution since I've read that PEX should
not be exposed for more than 30 days and I won't have time to build
the soffit in the next 30 days. Foil wraps, paint, etc? Any
recommendations for something that'll be quick and easy?


how 'bout some cardboard over the windows? duh. Or don't worry about
it, since it's not direct sunlight.
