Man, that really socks. I never knew pex could be used from the service curb stop to the house. It does seem to create a ground problem.

Yes, if I hadn't spent 40 years in telecommunications with most of it as a technician, I would not have even thought of the home grounding having been changed and a plumber isn't going to say anything about it.

I love PEX, it’s so easy to run and resistant to freezing and breaking...

A neighbor near my house in Illinois had his copper hot water line bust beneath his concrete slab floor in his house... He ran PEX up from the water heater and through the attic space and fixed it all in one afternoon for next to nothing compared to breaking up the floor and doing a repair.
