Plumbing To PEX, or not to PEX, that is the question.

Default Outdoor Fountain

an outdoor shower built into a camper can be a very handy thing but folks who have one should be very aware that it is a freezing point .... three times in the last few years we have seen campers where the "mixer" in the outdoor shower (that is the place where the hot and cold water is mixed) froze overnight and when the sun hit that side of the camper the following morning, a fountain erupts .... when folks are given an orientation to a new unit we believe they should be told to either put shutoff valves on the lines leading to the outdoor shower or remove the hose and stuff the cavity under the thin plastic lid with insulation ..... is it supposed to be 19 degrees here tonight and it will be interesting to see if any fountains erupt in the morning
