I was just at a local parade of homes and one of the $1,000,000+ houses had lots of interesting plumbing to look at.
One thing that I had not seen before was a 2" supply from the city for a single residence. The other thing was crimped copper fittings. I think that these fittings were about 1.5" diameter and I did not see any evidence of solder on these fittings. Upon closer examination, each joint appeared to be hexagonial in shape with some obvious tool marks on each joint from some sort of crimper.
I have not seen anything posted here about such connections and was just wondering if one of the more experienced guys could shed some light on this.
