Make sure shark bites slide straight onto pipes
Would RecommendThe shark bites were a little temperamental to get on house pipes but even with a tight bend, once on there’s been no leaking. Much easier than soldering or cpvc welding.

Wrong part
It's all my fault. I failed to notice the PEC aspect that did not apply to my 1963 application. Returned.

Great quality.
Would RecommendWorks as intended. We ended up having to switch to a different kind due to plumbing height.

Great product
Would RecommendThis is a great product. The only issue i had was minor leaks from each threaded connection. I used a few wraps of good thread tape and it sealed right up.

time saver
Would Recommendmade installation of my new water heater so much easier
Can use with copper lines
Would RecommendEasiest way to hook up water heater with existing copper lines. You can hook directly to copper by cutting with tubing cutter, sanding copper smooth, removing the plastic insert inside the shark bite (grab on it with a pair of needle nose and snatch), and just push on.
