Getting a new heater and AC system.Â* When the guy was under house

to a Union and a leaking sweated joint.Â* Water still dripping from
lines,
so near impossible to solder.Â* Used Sharkbite connectors. Fabulous
invention.


The licensed plumber who installed our new water heater a couple of
years ago used "sharkbites," and said he had been using them without
issue for "some time." The heater is in a protected spot in a indoor
basement storage room, so the pipes aren't exposed to huge temperature
variations or subject to being banged by falling objects, kids on hot
wheels bikes, et cetera.


Unions don't like them.Â* They don't like Romex either.
