Water line parts for modifications

I want to install water line cutoff valves in the belly behind the UDC to cut off water flow to the washer/dryer area of my 2008 Big Country 3250TS. I'm afraid of a leak in that area which could possibly flood the rig from front to rear. I don't ever p[lan on installing a washing machine. Where can I purchase water line cutoffs, clamps and tools to do this. I think the water lines are called PEC....?? Any help/advise is appreciated. Thank you. Dennis

It's called PEX tubing. It's readily available at most Home Improvement stores, plumbing supply stores and many large hardware stores. It's now used in a lot of residential home plumbing also. You should have no problems finding it...Don

Hey There dljcyoung,
At the home improvement stores ther is a product called shark-bite.
They come in all sizes, the hardset part is the cutting of the pipe.
We had a leak in one of the 90s in our BC used a half inch 90 and that did the trick.
No tools needed to install them, push untill it stops.
Good luck

Yes on the Shark Bite's. Lowes and HD have them. I think they cost about $12 each....but well worth the time saved. I used them to remove the low point drains. You need about 3/4" of line so they push on to seal.
