Thank you. Next you should get the actuator jaw for tight spaces. I held off because of the price but it was def worth it. Have a great day

I have Pex and I just bought a house and found out that one side of the baseboard doesn’t have any fins. So now I must add one to 3 fins. What tools do I need for this project. Thanks 🙏

Hello Flavio. Yes they are. The pro press are the Viega brand, which are way better. And the other fittings are from Home Depot. Nothing fancy. Thanks for stopping by.

@@alexthehandyman3494 Hi Alex, I was under the impression that the fittings for domestic water were different from the fittings for heating systems. I think they look the same, but are rated for high heat. Can you confirm?

Hello @@Handymanphilly In theory yes. ...... so there is M K and L copper M is the thinnest and L the thickest. At school they teach you to use K for heating system, but reality is that most heating system are made with M and this is why. Baseboard heaters are so thin, they are thinner than M. So What good is it if your heater are less than M and your pipes are K. ? It doesn't make sense.!!!!! So a heater that is less than M last 40 plus years. M is going to last 60 Plus.... And K 80 years. It will be time for another system in a different generation: your grand son, sort of speaking. Besides regular system doesn't even reach 200 degrees and 12-25 PSI. and M copper is rated for 400F and 200 psI. So ........in theory yes....In reality NO. I hope this helps. As you so in this video we needed pipe stiffeners to be able to pro press because baseboard heater's copper is ridiculous thin.

@@alexthehandyman3494 hey! Thanks! For that! Actually I was talking about the Propress Fittings. Do you need special high heat propress fittings or are you using the same ones as you would for regular domestic water?

Yessss. Pro press fittings are the same for domestic and the ones for heating systems. (Water heaters, low pressure boilers ). They are all kind of brands. I tend to like and trust the VIEGA brand. Better quality (more expensive) You can find viega fittings at Home Depot now . HVAC fittings however are different. You can use the same gun but different type of jaws to press.
