It is true that PEX resists bursting more effectively than copper if water freezes in the line. This is because PEX is flexible and has the ability to expand and return to its original shape. That said, PEX is not freeze-proof. Every precaution should be taken to ensure water is not allowed to freeze in the line.

Yes, it can.
The maximum temperature for Rifeng PEX tubing is 200 °F.
Yes, heat tape can be applied directly to PEX.
The psi rating for PEX tubing depends on the temperature of the liquid flowing through it. The cooler the liquid, the more pressure PEX can handle. PEX is rated to 80 psi at 200°F, 100 psi at 180°F, and 160 psi at 73.4°F.
No, but it is a good idea to sleeve PEX where it stubs out of concrete to guard against damage to the the tubing that can result from linear expansion.
Yes. The colors for PEX tubing make identifying hot and cold lines easier, but there would be no reason you could not do this.
Painting PEX is not recommended. We would advise you to sleeve the PEX in PVC to protect it from UV rays.
