Need to be careful using dissimilar materials/metals. Copper to stainless, brass to stainless cast iron to zinc? It looks like the new 3/4” female adapter is a different metal than the meter connection. The dissimilar metals don’t like each other and will corrode over time. Always try and use NEW parts and gaskets regardless. You don’t want to do this again if it leaks after you put it back together or in a year or 2??? Good luck and good job.
Wrong. Pvc is ideal for cold water, thus ideal for water supply. It's corrosion resistant and very durable. It's about all that's used these days. Not for inside use. Not for anything over 140 degrees.
