When setting up access panels/shut off valve locations --- if you're laying in copper runs (soldered plumbing), for the shut off valves, do you go solder as well OR do you use a solder adapter/MIP with a FIP valve. Where in a threaded valve, should you ever need to move, change, etc --- the valve is reusable ?
I can see in the latter application where if it went straight solder, it would be a ~guaranteed~ leak tight connection.
