You tube has a load of pex install videos. If I understand it right, you only need, either a crimper or an expander, not both. Crimpers go for $100-150. So the cost of the less expensive fittings will offset the tool cost by a lot. It also seems better to avoid angled fittings if a bend will do. The video above shows one way to avoid in wall right angle fittings.


ProPEX - brand of fittings and tool where the tube is expanded.
