We've (at my grandmother's house I mean) got a dirt basement so we just let it drain down. If you didn't or didn't have a good basement drain I could see it being a big hassle.

That was always the most time-consuming part when I prepped the place for the winter. -----Original Message----- From: mercedes-boun...@okiebenz.com [mailto:mercedes-boun...@okiebenz.com] On Behalf Of Randy Bennell Sent: Wednesday, July 18, 2012 3:38 PM To: Mercedes Discussion List Subject: Re: [MBZ] I'm interviewing at Taylor Hopefully not but I have also read that one needs to be wary of dips in the line as pex is soft enough to sag a bit over time. I plan to support it at each joist so it ought not to be able to sag enough to be an issue. I could blow it out too with air but so far, with the existing copper pipe system, we have just been able to open valves and remove plugs and let the system drain itself by gravity.
