Terry, If I am not mistaken, there was a class action lawsuit regarding a defective plastic used for water pipes, etc. So I suspect Rob is not dissing all plastic plumbing, but just that type that has been found to be defective. When replacement was needed, he just decided to go with the "good stuff" - real copper. Only he can verify or negate my supposition.
