RJ, Thanks. So to make sure I understand this here is my current and proposed situation.
I have an old faucet mounded on the bottom row of siding on the outside of my house. It is threaded on to a standard fitting that was soldered to standard half inch copper pipe. Fortunately, there is a shut off in the basement for this run. I want to relocate this to the back side of the house as we are getting new siding put on and I want to extend the deck in conjunction with this project. Of course you can guess that the water outlet is right where the deck board will bo against the house. Anyway, if I understand you correctly above I can simply get a new faucet, length of Pex, and a shark bite fitting? In your case, did the faucet come pre connected to the length of Pex or does it simply slide on?-----Original Message----- thanks, Al From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]]on Behalf Of RJ Sent: Thursday, July 29, 2010 11:52 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] Outside water faucet I used pex pipe and shark fittings. The pipe is flexible and the fittings just slide on. The fittings will work on Pesx, PVC, or copper pipes and the great part is no cleaner, glue, solder and easy to slide off with a pair of pliers or a tool that cost less than a buck. The pipe and fittings are rated at 200 P S I ----- Original Message ----- From: Alan & Terrie Robbins To: Blindhandyman Sent: Wednesday, July 28, 2010 7:39 PM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Outside water faucet I think I remember a while ago RJ put an outside faucet in and used some type easy connector to do it? Could whoever did this, and again, I think it was RJ, describe what you purchased to do the job? thanks Al [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
