I can't seem to find an answer on this anywhere. . . I have PVC piping in my garage. I would like to install a hose bib before the water gets to my filtering equipment. That way, I can use unfiltered well water for the lawn, pressure washing, etc. The pressure tank and well head are over 100 feet from my home, so attaching a hose there is not an option.
Here's my issue. . . All hose bibs I have ever seen are metal. Everything I have read on the internet says that you're NEVER supposed to connect a metal male thread to a female PVC thread. The metal male thread will always cause the female PVC thread to fail, due to the nature of metal vs. PVC and how the threads attach.
That having been said, how on earth do I attach a metal hose bib that has male threads to female PVC
