Crimping vs sweating copper - Love Plumbing Remodel PRO-PRESS complies with code we use it in commercial work on both water and gas piping It's a great system No, it hasn't withstood the test of time Who knows, 40 years from now there may be a class action suit against pro-press My feeling is that if there is a class action suit years and years from now, I'll be dead or pushing 100 years old
Replacing cast iron sewer with plastic - Love Plumbing Remodel Many people told me I should hire a pro, but it worked out okay for me I went ahead partially because there are no guarantees when doing this You could have a pipe that crushes instead of snaps even if a pro does it If your pipes sag for some reason or fall, it could happen even to a pro Then it'll cost you a lot
How durable are flexible supply lines? - Love Plumbing Remodel The last purchase is the Fluidmaster PRO series I have to laugh though I've been talking about "pro" plumbing supplies on this site for years The ones with better quality than the home center stuff, and then they turn around and actually start calling them "PRO" supplies How funny is that? They should be paying me for making up brand names
AS Cadet PRO - better or worse? - Love Plumbing Remodel And yet when I go to wholesale plumbing houses, the plumbers joke about American Standard and why they don't install them Too funny I do sell them sometimes They make a Cadet 3 with 10" rough I do sell all the brands Just some more than others I think the Pro model is inspected a bit better than the home center version

I know that pro-press is rated to be installed on all grades of tubing that is rated for potable water: Type M, L and K We only install press fittings now and use Type L for all of our installations Every piece of a plumbing system will fail eventually Copper tube and fittings will wear out
American Standard Cadet Pro versus Champion Pro? | Terry Love Plumbing . . . I've narrowed my choice down to either the American Standard Champion Pro or the Cadet Pro from a plumbing supply store Comfort height, elongated bowl I saw in another thread that Terry recommended the Cadet Pro over the Champion, and I'm trying to figure out why The Champion Pro has a 2-3 8" trapway vs 2-1 8" in the Cadet Pro
How often do air-admittance valves go bad? - Love Plumbing Remodel The failure rate does not seem to be too high, but you still must leave it (them) with easy access just in case Many pro plumber absolutely oppose them, others will use them where a connection to an outside vent would be very difficult and or expensive Some local code prohibit them, so you need to be sure you can legally use them where you are
Rheem Home Depot quality same as plumbing supply house? Has to be a separate line from the relief valve plumbing, code doesn't allow anything to share the high pressure relief line (for good reason lol) I'm definitely drilling a hole through the block and plumbing 3 4" CPVC to the outdoors for the primary condensate line But, I see the tank has an auxiliary 3 8" line in addition to the primary
