"One thing new will be the water manifold, which is now made of copper"....
After re-doing an entire house in PEX, I can say "It doesn't get any better than that". Copper is a thing of the past....IMO. PEX is easier to work with, not as expensive as copper, and should virtually last a lifetime...or longer.
On the rig, I have replaced as many hose clamp fittings as I can reach with PEX clamps. Looking at the photo, apparently the factory is starting to do the same.
