Installing Pex Water Main Line...Part 1

What happens here

Locate the old black poly pipe connection near the house foundation. Ensure the main water supply is shut off at the meter before proceeding. Use poly pipe cutters to make a clean cut in the poly pipe, effectively disconnecting it and stopping any further leakage from that specific line. Allow any residual water in the pipe to drain out.

Goal: Isolate and disconnect the old, leaking poly pipe
