I sold plumbing supplies for 11 years and encouraged customers to buy ball valves. When ask if they were good, i would hand them a closed ball valve and told them to open, if had never been opened before it would make popping sound from being pressurized. What i like about Sharkbite fittings they go back in the exact space of a copper fitting.
@ruizbuildersinc7 ай бұрын
Great video! We use shark bite fittings whenever possible, however, a no stop 3/4 coupler pro press fitting would have made the last connection a little easier if there was no play in those lines with water still running. Awesome work Ben and Sharkbite Plumbing!

Sharkbite is the plumber's best friend. Of all the repairs they make this one fails the most often. Job security. It takes about 1 minute longer to use solder.

Had a cold water main go bad under the house. Could get to the break as it was on a pier and covered in bush roots (bush is gone!). Ran everything back in pex. Hardest part was getting under house. Had several sub zero days in texas this year. No breaks but my cutoff outside (ran it through beam vent hole) did freeze. Heat gun fixed it. Sadly the handle broke when i was checking it. Oh well. Still have meter valve.

10-15 minute repair $3-5k 😂😂😂 i know plumbers like to charge out their a$$ for some ridiculously simple stuff , on another note it is very odd that it bursted in that basement with the furnace right by it , it makes no sense unless is not completely enclosed

Did you recommend replacing the shut-off valve? Also, if it gets cold enough there to freeze a pipe in the basement is the hose bib a frost free type? If not, did you recommend replacing with a frost free type?

Hi there,I'm from nc,I'm not a plumber but I'll be doing all my repairs, I've done 3 so far with cvpc,and as you talked about my water still wants to run or drip fast after turning off the valve. And putting glue on it is tuff. So I've bought a lot of new tools,for pex A and pex B And I've bought the pipe and the tees,the coupling, also some sharkbite fittings. I'm almost ready for anything. My home runs off a well. You should see the mess under my home.looks like some how they mixed cvpc with pvc pipe.whice is hard to do. I don't have money for a real plumber. And I'm 65 a usmc disability veteran. So crawling under the house is hard. Do you know if they make something that would warn me.if my well pump don't shut off due to leaks ?

Hello! Thank you for your service @bbwbetter254, check out smart home water monitoring systems like the Moen Flo, it can detect leaks and shut off the water for you automatically. It will give you peace mind, even away from home, you'll have the ability to monitor your homes plumbing and shut off the water if need be. Good luck!

@@ruizbuildersincI have one installed in my house and it saved me hundreds of dollars in repairs. I can confirm what you’re saying and I’ve shared it with my neighbors as well. I also have the same device installed in my stores that I own, never had issues with my plumbing but it’s a piece of mind knowing that my merchandise isn’t going to be damaged by flooding. Very handy advice sir thanks 😊

@@gregd4633Innovation and future-proofing is always the goal, peace of mind is priceless. Great decision in installing the water monitoring system. If you ever decide to undergo a large remodel or new construction we recommend installing a plumbing manifold to service individual fixtures without shutting the water off to the entire building. We are happy to service and help people in the construction industry. If you ever need advice or consulting, don’t hesitate to reach out or comment.
