Hi all,
Looking for a little help with a water line repair. It runs from the back of the house to the garage. Was an old leaky steel or cast iron pipe from the 70's, I couldn't tell through the rust so removed the whole thing.
First question:
Any reason I shouldn't use an apollo pex to replace the old line? I'm a little worried about the PSI only 160 max depending on temperate.
Second Question
Looking at the attached photos what would you do here? Any part recommendations? or installation methods for new parts? I believe that threaded attachment is 1" and the Apollo Pex I have is 3/4 inch which I picked because that was the size of the old pipe.
Thanks for any help or advice you can provide.
