Bill Wrote in message:r Getting a new heater and AC system. When the guy was under house doing theducts, he found two leaks in the water lines. Plumber could not get therefor a week, so decided I had to crawl under and do the job. Leaking pipeto a Union and a leaking sweated joint. Water still dripping from lines,so near impossible to solder. Used Sharkbite connectors. Fabulousinvention. Sharkbite, PEX, and other relatively new plumbing materials are good things to know about. I was thinking of using PVC to run air compressor air lines around the perimeter of my garage until I read some horror stories about that material and decided to use PEX instead. I used a number of Sharkbite fittings but I had trouble sealing one particular PEX to 1/2 NPT Sharkbite fitting. in this case I used a Flair-it brand plastic fitting instead. It screws together; no tools required. I am doing copper lines. |
