"Qest" by US Brass
I believe, for that vintage Hunter they used "Qest", or Qest type, polybutylene (a.k.a. PB) plumbing. Qest is (was?) a brand name of US Brass. Although I'm not connected with the management, I'd like to state for what it's worth, that the use of all caps is really discouraged on this web site and most others. link to PB plumbing problem: http://www.codecheck.com/Qest_PB.htm PB problems: http://list.realestate.yahoo.com/reinfo/usinspect/psupplylines.html PB class action suit: http://www.spencerclass.com/ Check out these manufacturers statements about what voids the warranty. Don't know if QestPEX is the same material as Qest: http://www.plumbingstore.com/pex.html
