Installing Pex Water Main Line...Part 2

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

Using an adjustable wrench, carefully loosen the nuts on the water meter connection that will receive the new PEX pipe. The objective is to be able to pivot the connection point to a downward angle. This angling facilitates bringing the new PEX line up from a sufficient depth (e.g., 24 inches below the frost line) into the meter box, ensuring optimal and protected pipe routing.

Goal: Loosen the meter connection nuts and angle the connection downward to allow for proper routing of the new PEX line.
