Plumbing my 120 upgrade help

[Silverni2]

Upgrading from rr 90 to drilled 120. I will have 2 returns back wall and 2 drains back wall my question is plastic tubing or PVC pipe? From what Ive gathered tubing is easier to assemble and easier to take apart but most high end builds I see on this site are PVC! Does It matter? Please give me the pros and cons.
Thx

easy vs not so easy.
simple vs hard.
neat vs messy.

PVC can be made to look very nice.
hose is simpler to work with.

and dont forget head pressure.... you can eliminate alot of that head with vinyl tubing.

oh... and if you are planning on using a return pump to run other equipment such as reactors and eliminate costs of running extra pumps... PVC is the way to go.

Well if you like a project go with PVC. Both work the same. If you go with PVC just add screw on/off fitting just in case you have to replace its easy to remove.
