When the galvanized pipe fails! #helpingothers #diy #plumbing
What happens here
With the PEX pipe-ball valve-PEX pipe assembly completed, connect the entire system into the plumbing line. Use the PEX expander tool to expand the remaining open ends of the PEX pipe segments and firmly push them onto the PEX sides of the previously installed top and bottom 1/2-inch MIP by PEX A adapters. Ensure all connections are fully seated and secure. Once installed, confirm the ball valve operates correctly by moving its handle.
Goal: Integrate the ball valve and PEX pipe into the main plumbing line
