Project Ideas
Business
Flat-Fee PEX Quick Fixes
Offer 30–90 minute service calls to swap leaky couplers, angle stops, and hose bib tie-ins using 1/2 in. ASTM F1807/F2159 fittings. The compact jaw’s one-handed operation speeds work and reduces water-off time—perfect for upselling whole-home shutoff upgrades.
Landlord Turnover Plumbing Refresh
Batch-replace aging stops, supply stubs, and minor PEX repairs across units between tenants. The high-visibility size markings speed kit prep; document each replacement for property managers and bundle seasonal maintenance.
Mobile Van/RV/Food Truck Potable Systems
Design and install compact 1/2 in. PEX potable water systems with filters, pumps, and quick-disconnects. On-site builds benefit from fast, clean press joints; add winterization, leak-checks, and yearly filter change subscriptions.
Event Hydration & Handwash Lines
Deploy temporary potable-water distribution using 1/2 in. PEX manifolds to bottle-fill stations and handwash sinks. Press joints allow rapid setup/teardown with low leak risk; bill per station with delivery and sanitization fees.
Smart Garden Irrigation Retrofits
Replace messy poly spaghetti with a 1/2 in. PEX backbone and press-in tees to zones controlled by smart valves. Offer design, install, and seasonal blowout packages, plus recurring checks to adjust flows and fix leaks.
Creative
Modular Raised-Bed Irrigation Grid
Build a backbone manifold from 1/2 in. PEX along garden beds with press-crimped tees and inline ball valves to feed drip zones. The compact jaw makes fast, reliable joints even in tight corners, and the system can be expanded by cutting in new tees later.
Garage Pet Wash + Rinse Station
Run 1/2 in. hot/cold PEX to a small mixing valve and handheld sprayer in the garage or mudroom. Press elbows and tees keep it tidy and leak-free; add a drain-down valve for winterizing. Great for rinsing boots, bikes, and pets.
Outdoor Sink & Prep Cart
Plumb a rolling sink cart with 1/2 in. PEX supply lines that quick-connect to a hose bib. Pressed insert fittings keep the cart rugged for backyard cookouts or markets; route greywater to a garden-safe container.
Hydroponic Herb Rail
Create a compact recirculating loop using 1/2 in. PEX and press-crimp barb fittings to feed drip emitters on a vertical herb rack. The rust-resistant jaw keeps tooling low-maintenance around moisture.
Rain Barrel Manifold & Spigot Tree
Daisy-chain rain barrels with 1/2 in. PEX, adding press-crimp isolation valves and a multi-tap spigot manifold for filling cans and hoses. Include a low-point drain for easy winterizing.
