Aqua hot copper pipes - Yachts - 07-16-2017

For the 4th year in a row ,the copper pipes below the zone pumps on the aura hot have cracked leading To leaking.. I have decided to replace the copper lines with heater tube and copper fittings. newell said this is a common failure point and that the heater hose should eliminate the problem.. does any one have any input before I begin.

Marc,

Any hose, tube, and fitting that stops the leak is fine.  An automotive heater hose with a molded 90 degree in it can be cut to fit.  Sharkbite fittings will work also.

All the best.
