The Bitcoin Plumber to save the day! 👨🔧
An older couple called about a leak so bad they had to turn off all their water in order to prevent the continuous leak. 💦
We need our day a little later than usual so that we could get to these folks and make sure they had running water in their home again. 🏠
The pipe that burst was probably due to a combination of erosion and freezing. 🧊
Master @Grover cut out the old pipe and had me cut new pipe to replace it.
Then, like a superhero contortionist he soldered the new pipe in where the old pipe was. I forgot to mention the location of this pipe was behind an old water heater placed in a corner. Talk about impressive!
And, now we can sleep tonight knowing those folks have running water!

Make sure to turn off the water and have a bucket to catch what's left of the water in the line.
Now, it's time to cut the pipe right along the hole that was punctured into the water line from the saddle valve and clean the copper pipe with emory paper.
Then use flux paste to prepare the pipe and coupling that will be used to connected the now cut pipe.
All that's left to do is solder the pipe and coupling together! Time to turn the water on to check for leaks...
No leaks! Not bad for an apprentice. 😃
