Hello
I have installed a new Trunk-and-branch PEX system as part of a bathroom remodel (3/4" trunk, 1/2" branches to supply the fixtures)
It's a simple bathroom with, toilet, single sink, tub/shower (single mixer valve)
I'd like some advice on a few things:
1 - installing hammer arrestors in this system
a) is it necessary?
b) which fixture branches should get the hammer arrestor?
2 - installing shut off valves on the branch supply lines to the shower mixer valve
a) is it necessary? Is there any code requirement for this?
any advice would be appreciated.
thanks
Jonathan
