[QUOTE="FL-Orange, post: 7301325, member: 65694"] I keep my underslab runs to a minimum. Where needed I will go to PEX or copper because fittings under a slab aren't good either. The pex or (soft) copper would be looped as a single piece. Where I can I'll specify a chase such as a 3" or 4" pvc pipe to run the looped pipe in. The frustrating thing about designing these systems is the plumber will tell the owner that they can save X amount of dollars by eliminating it (not code required) so they take it out. If I was plumbing my house though I wouldn't think twice about spending the extra money for piece of mind. Hell, I'd overdo my own house just to have a kick ass system - good pressure (non-maniblock), return hot water lines, extra insulation and such. [/QUOTE]
