My friend David lost his id Now I just call him Dav Kerwyn's Joke of the week Svengoolie.com

Why was the broom late to work? Because he over swept "Kerwyn's Joke of the Week" (a bit modified by me) SvenGoolie.com

This is one of reasons I went with Type A because it is certified to resist what the water district uses to treat the water.

Another reason I am doing the work now. Don't want to be up in the attic in the summer

I am replacing the 52 year old galvanized with Type-A pex plus what is upstream and all downstream outlets including faucets for all sinks and showers. Over the years have replaced a few faucets and shut off valves but this is a new experience. There is no immediate pipe danger but best do it...
