Accidentally Drilled Through A Water Line- What To Do!
What happens here
Connect the cut ends with PEX pipe and couplings (crimp rings and crimp tool) by sliding a coupling and ring onto some spare PEX pipe. Then using the crimp tool set the gap to an eighth from the ring to the top of the pipe. Fit the pipe into the coupling in the wall and crimp until the tool stops. Do the same for the bottom pipe.
Goal: Bridge the cut ends.
Tools and materials
- PEX Couplings — Connecting the spare pipe to the pipe in the wall
- PEX Crimping Tool — Securing the PEX ring, PEX Rings used for Creating a water tight seal at the pipe and coupling
- Spare PEX pipe — Adding length to the cut pipes
