FT: Household plumbing help for Corals or Cash - Burnaby
 
I am in need of an experienced plumber who has enough parts in their truck to replace an outside shut-off for me. After looking at it I've decided I don't want to open a can of worms. Idealy I'd like to install a wall hydrant but we'll talk as I don't think the location will accomodate it.
Anyway, I bought a compression 1/2 BV but don't think I can get the existing plumbing apart without cutting and then replacing a section. This I'm not going to do and end up with no home water while I search for parts.

If you're interested in trading your time/labor for corals, or some side cash, please PM me with your name and #

I have the following available for trade, and I'll be generous if you will;

It's the blue valve which the dumb-ass builder installed as a bleeder instead of as a drain :rolleyes:

1) This isn't reef related.

2) What the hell are you trying to do?

I can't trade corals for plumbing help?

WarDog 08-29-2018 02:16 AM

Yes. I'm asking what you need done, as your plumbing terminology is confusing me.

I'm needing to replace that blue valve. It's the outside shutoff.

WarDog 08-29-2018 02:21 AM

Easy. Does the copper on the left go to an outside hose spigot?

gregzz4 08-29-2018 02:21 AM

A wall hydrant is a through-wall non-freeze shutoff that allows you to turn off the outside water.

Yes. I just don't want to deal with the soldered elbow etc.

So when you coming over?

WarDog 08-29-2018 02:28 AM

Ok.

1. The blue valve is broken?

2. Why replace a hose spigot with a hydrant if you can shut the water off inside for the winter?

So many questions. If it can wait until next week, I'm off.
