PEX offers many material advantages to traditional plumbing systems and has different characteristics that should be accounted for in design and installation phases to maximize its benefits. Domestic hot-water recirculation considerations will be discussed to explain the criteria for best preventing Legionella bacteria growth and reducing scald risks.
