I Be a Plumber

Fixed my leak.

Again.

I go another pin-hole leak in the copper, so I replaced a bunch of it with cPVC.

Looking at it now, I should have replaced my temporary/flexible fix I did at Thanksgiving. It’s only a matter of time before that springs a leak as well.

At least when that goes I can isolate the area that needs fixing without having to turn off the well pump and pressure tank again.

Something else I learned is to wrap all the copper in at least tape. At least then when it does leak, it leaks in one spot. This last hole shot water 8′ across the room.

ps. By no means am I making fun of the plumbing profession/trade or anyone who’s in it. As always it’s my hack job that’s the joke here.
