I have heard conflicting stories on if you can connect polybutylene pipe to copper with compression fittings or not. Some say it works great and some say it won't. Any advice would be appreciated.

the only compression fittings that i would use on pb tubing are the grey ones made by qest. they will also work on copper so they'd be a good choice to connect the 2.
