🔧 SharkBite U016LFA4 3/4 Inch Straight Coupling Plumbing Fitting, PEX Push-to-Connect Coupler for PE-RT, HDPE, Copper, CPVC Pipes Review

Regardless, when I found these SharkBite fittings I did a little research, read reviews, watched a few tutorial videos and decided to give it a try. Let me tell you they are a complete game changer. When I started the first project I was going to use them on, I got a nasty surprise: the valve on my main line was out of order and I couldn't…
