What's wrong with PEX ??
Just wondering. Why is the City of San Diego not allowing PEX? I was under
the impression that PEX was the greatest thing since the invention of the wheel. What's wrong with the stuff? "the City of San Diego will halt the acceptance of applications requesting the use of PEX. This policy will become effective immediately for all projects including re-piping projects." http://www.sandiego.gov/development-...pdf/pexltr.pdf Is PEX cheaper to install and thus not acceptable to our labor unions? City Hall recently voted to keep Wal-Mart out of San Diego. Wal-Mart is not unionized. Any other reasons for prohibiting PEX? Any other cities prohibiting PEX? -- Walter www.rationality.net - -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |

Some company that doesn't make PEX but a legal competitive product paid off a city official or gave him big bucks for his campaign. It probably got voted in because the city officers had no idea what the stuff is. John |

I lived in a town that would not allow nothing except cast iron for waste
lines.I became good friends with a union plumber and found out that the plumbers' union didn't want to loose that part of their work so cast iron was kept in the local code.

I pressured my girlfriend into sex through the movies we went to see, songs played on the radio, and roaming hands. Because of her past abuses she was unable to say 'no.' I got her pregnant and married her. We now have two great children and 3 wonderful grandchildren. We are now going though counseling for our past history of abuse. I admit to my abuse and take full responsibility for it. Kobe Bryant, the Duke team, and Arnold refuse to take responsibility for their abuse, denying it is abuse to rape women, encourage women to strip for pictures, etc. |
