hi trucks'
seems like this is asking for trouble.
since the SHELL moves so much, high pipes will shake more=more potential for leaks.
one could wrap/protect/cover the pex, but...
plumbing repairs will be a pia.
the extra height will stress the water pump more (albeit slightly)
and the potential for AIR in the line goes up.
still anything IS possible.
my newer unit has ALL the plumbing along the street side, EVERYTHING...
except for the water pump which is at the curbside wheel well.
the 2 water lines run JUST UNDER the sub-floor for this,
along with ONE furnace flex tube, which also goes just to that wheel well.
cheers
