Code says PEX needs to be fastened every 32" horizontally. To repipe bathrooms, I would need to remove 25' of drywall ceiling that is framed 2' below the upstairs floor joists. Could I attach PEX every 32" on a 2x4, to be inserted into the area, with the 2x4 to be fastened to the joists every 10' of so, to reduce the need to open so much of the ceiling? To have enough clearance to insert, I'd need to use 10' or 12' 2x4s and join them end-to-end during the installation.
