T&T: Airlock on hydronic heating system

[Henry]

Marty, Pascal, Steve, C.O., Ron, Jay and others who responded to my question
concerning our heating system - Thank you.  I created a fill/bleed manifold
with CPVC and connected it into the PEX.  I learned that the PEX used,
although it measures 3/4" OD, it is really 5/8" PEX, meaning the Sharkbite
and other snap connectors will not work.  To connect to CPVC, there is not
an elegant way.  I had to use a 5/8" brass barb fitting and heat the PEX.  I
force water through the system for 20 minutes and fired it up.  It works
like a champ and now I have a manifold for future needs.

Thank you
