Why pipe dope instead of that white tape?

@debmac235 4 года назад

A few years ago I was "freakin' and called Beacon (plumbing)." They charged me over $700 to come to my house, cut the hot and cold lines, and stated that because this type of plastic pipe wasn't legal anymore, they had to disconnect and cap, and couldn't fix. (Ended up being a washer put in wrong a few weeks earlier.) I read up on PEX pipe and Shark Bites, and recently replaced the pipe, added Shark Bite shut-off valves and elbows (and an access panel thanks to Beacon), and hooked up my bathtub after two and a half years. Only cost me a little over $100 for parts AND tools. Love Shark Bite and glad to see your video!

@bobduffy7744 2 года назад

We just installed a water softener. The previous owners never installed a main house supply shutoff. We had to turn off the pump & drain pressure. While it still had water coming out without pressure, we installed a ball valve shutoff. By keeping it open, it pressed on with no problem & we could shut it off immediately to continue the re-routing to complete the installation. All fittings were sharkbite. No leaks. We bought the depth/marking tool to chamfer the PEX pipe & guarantee full insertion.

Never put shark bite in an enclosed wall cavity. At bare minimum I would cut an access panel where you make the connections so you can make sure they are not leaking every 3-6 months. Shark bite is handy but should never be out in an enclosed environment where it cannot be seen. The failure rate is just too high.

@Lawman-196 2 года назад

I've heard that you would want to solder a female piece to both copper water pipes and then convert the rest to pex fittings. I'd like to avoid soldering. Is it save to use the 90 degree connectors, one connected to copper, the other end fitted with PEX inside the shower wall to avoid the extra work and materials needed to solder? Thanks!

@THESEASONE416 5 лет назад

those plasric inserts are for pex to strengthen it so it doesnt collapse. you take them out when using copper.

You can, but my understanding from SharkBite is that you don't need to take them out when you use copper either.

@arcadion448 11 месяцев назад

You forgot to deburr the outside of the copper pipe as well. Reaming the inside is good practice to prevent internal turbulence - but deburring the outside is required to prevent damage to the O-Rings. You also might as well use Pex to save some money instead of copper.

@claudetaylor7648 11 месяцев назад

Thank you for your comment. I appreciate your feedback and suggestions. You are right, I should have deburred the outside of the copper pipe as well to prevent damage to the O-Rings. I was in a hurry and forgot to do that step. I will make sure to do it next time. As for using Pex instead of copper, I have heard mixed opinions about it. Some people say it is cheaper and easier to install, but others say it is less durable and more prone to leaks1. I prefer copper because it is more resistant to corrosion and bacteria2. But I respect your choice and I would like to learn more about Pex. Do you have any tips or tricks for working with Pex? Thank you for watching my video and sharing your thoughts. 😊

@arcadion448 11 месяцев назад

@@claudetaylor7648, I'm not a plumber - just thinking about it from a DIY or homeowner's perspective. Copper and Pex have their drawbacks. Pex-A had a bad batch and got sued. Copper is prone to internal corrosion if for God forbid rust from your water heater finds it way to your pipe. Since it looks like you're creating a new bathroom - I just thought Pex would be easier and faster to both install and repair. Especially if you make make it accessible for repairs (i.e. access panel). Regarding pex, even if Pex-A had a bad batch and got sued - I would still use it for whole house. Naturally it wants to contract, meaning overtime the connections to fittings get stronger when compared to Clamp or Crimp. But, the main reason I would choose Pex is any non-professional can fix or make a quick fix without having to worry about burning their house down. I would use Copper if it's put under a concrete slab, especially if it's hooked to the city's main and not vulnerable to rust from the Water Heater.

You have a very pleasant voice. I enjoy your videos. Thank you for this. Question: Won't the galvanized & brass going together cause a chemical reaction that will cause corrosion? Would a dielectric fitting work for that application? I want to go from a 2 handle system to one handle but don't want to sweat copper to connect to the new shower/tub valve. House was done in the 40s & still has very old plumbing. I got a Delta Monitor Multichoice valve with threaded male outlets/inlets. Since PEX has gotten cheaper I'm going to switch to it but am trying to find the best way to do the tub spout. Tub spout is slip fit so I need something that will work for that (assuming copper is the best). Also will be installing a brand new tub/shower system in another bathroom & converting a shower/tub to a shower so I will be able to recycle parts.

Do not mix different metals, as in the brass female pipe thread to galvanized iron pipe thread. Eventually you will get corrosion by electrolysis, the iron pipe will be eaten away. I just replaced a tub/shower valve. As I removed the spout or spigot, the galv pip literally fell apart. I would not recommend plastic pipe either, as you may not get enough torque while tightening the fitting. I would recommend using brass pipe. A four and a half inch piece of 1/2" brass pipe just cost me $20 at a local hardware store, but that's the way it goes. One more thing about Sharkbite, the tubing or pipe must enter the fitting straight in, if there is a slight angle, the fitting may not seal, I learned that one the hard way too. Jim

I prefer soldering, but my when a plumber charges by the hour there's a benefit to using fast connections in the more complicated fixtures. Edit: also in tight spaces with worn out wood where the risk of a wall catching fire is high. Without much room to work with compression fittings can be a pain in those cases too.

Shady Insurance Adjusters don’t like it, legit ones are thankful, and the shady ones like having various regulatory people included on emails even less. First thing I did after I bought my first home using my VA loan, was to start getting to know my county code people. Doing so has saved my bacon more than once, especially with a bad claim when I had Farmers Insurance. Adjuster thought he had me until I started contacting my contacts who make and enforce the code requirements. Helps to know people who are active in the trades, and consider military service to be payment in full when help or advice is needed, which is not often. A resource that I do not wear out my welcome with, for sure, as respect is definitely a two way street.

Good job thanks for your help sir. Question how would you take the shark bite that you attached on your hot side that you don’t see the pipe connected?

@theartofplumbing 3 года назад

Believe it or not they make a tool that will fit. I should have covered removal of shark bite😣

So much detailed information just in time for one if my reno's. Thank you so much for those valuable instructions. I'm interested in knowing the length for the shower pipe also.
