I think you'll need some way to connect a piece of pressure treated wood to the concrete or masonry wall. Maybe you don't have this yet. You can use a powder-actuated device, or you can screw a hole, insert a plastic plug, and screw the 2x against the wall. I recommend you screw some screws in the 2x with the tips pointing out a bit, then whack it against the wall. Now drill holes where to marks are. If this doesn't work well, drill holes in the wood and mark through the holes with a masonry bit.
Now you'll need a shut-off valve and I think you'll have the best luck with a ball valve which allows full flow. Get one with a drain above it. I also have installed a spigot right above the shut-off valve, which allows me to drain water into a bucket and not spray everywhere.
Other than this, you'll just need your usual plumbing fittings and pipe.
The plumbing contractor you usually work with has all the proper tools AND LICENCES.![]()
, these are the times that it would be nice to be able to do our own connections. Not trying to steel and work from the plumbing community.
Don't sweat it, Nedly. If we could get all the electricians and plumbers in one place at the same time and call in an air strike, it wouldn't be the worst thing that has ever happened.
Nice.
Always nice to see someone that is qualified to paint everyone with his broadbrush.
Well, 3 plumbers showed up in this thread, and not one helped with his question.![]()
Thanks, I hadnt thought of the 2X. We have the remington powder actuated device, so thats what I will use for fastening.:thumbsup:
Meaning you will do it again and again, not just this one time, sounds like your going to make it a habit to me.
next time I will ask the excavators, I am sure someone there knows how to sweat a joint or 2, how hard can it be.
