It's like I'm in the FUTURE lol It was a great show! I've been going since the late 70s

2025 ???

Did my whole basement hot water lines with sharkbite about 7 years ago so far not a single leak and I installed many fittings

you never told us how long it was installed....what a stupid video!!

That fitting was installed wrong for it to rock like that. It's not the fault of the product that the installer can't follow simple directions.

I've seen sweat joints in copper pipes that are 100 years old and still perfectly good. I don't know how long sharkbites will last so i never use them. I have perhaps 40 years left on this earth. I will not leave my wife with the possibility of a bunch of failures.

I’ll bet that was the year shark bites came on the market. Plumber hates shark bite because it bites into the business. But to be fair I wouldn’t use them in a wall out in the open why not

So , are you suggesting technology exists to design an o ring capable of withstanding high pressure oil but niot low pressure water? How interesting....

How long do they last?... you never said. Are sharkbites supposed to be used on copper lines? Look at that corrosion on the line, how's that supposed to seal?... it can't. I'm pretty sure sharkbites are designed for PVC lines and not copper. Personally I wouldn't use sharkbites on any line, those seals inside are gonna dry rot sooner than you'd expect. Rubber seals also shrink not just dry rot. A quick fix is never the real solution.

Go to singing beach at night and stomp on the wet sand... it glows bright green.

Lower fitting was not installed properly...that is where the failure is, not the fitting

Bad procedure's at installing time, now the best way to a plumber to make noise and make money welding coper?

I'm a LANDSCAPER and I love my LITHIUM battery POWERED OPE use them for all my JOBS no need for GA$/OIL MIXING and no tune ups put battery on and go to work

Appears that the pipe was not inserted properly into the Skarkbite fitting from the installation...don't blame Sharkbite.

Also just noticed the white button breaker is a dual fault for the bathroom. You need that one for the kitchen too

For a kitchen you should have combo arc fault and ground fault. unless is says "dual fault" it is not ground fault. CAFCI is combo arc fault which is just two types of arc fault. You need dual fault for kitchens and garages now

Bad video dont watch

First off, siemens arc faults are known to be extremely sensitive. Companies like siemens, eaton, square d call AFCI breakers "combination". I don't know why. this just confuses people. What you have here is the same effectively as a DUAL FUNCTION breaker, having arc fault protection in the panel, and ground fault protection at the outlet. This is legal! It should not cause any tripping. Like i said, these breakers are JUNK and should be swapped for an EATON CL arc fault. Guaranteed you won't have an issue, and they are rated for siemens panels. Ask me how i know, this exact service call probably made me 20k last year with the amount of times i have swapped these breakers. EDIT: ANOTHER option you have is install an eaton dual function (afci and gfci) breaker and install a regular outlet instead of your current GFCI outlet.

The reason it’s tripping is because it’s a older garb so the arcing on the brushes is too much three for tripping the arc fault breaker

You are a shark bite.

Understand exactly which type of "combination" you have. Some are labeled that way and the "combination" is parallel arc fault + series arc fault. Don't quote me but I believe Eaton breakers have a green stripe on the breaker label along with the blue, green referring to GFCI. Not sure about Siemens.

I only ever use end feed (soldered) fittings, or compression fittings on anything I make up. But sometimes I have to use pushfits along with what is already in place.

$30 to park and then $10 per person entrance fee along with tons of rules. I'm sorry but this beach seems to be run by a town filled with nasty elitist boomers who think they own the ocean trying keeping certain demographics out.

You and your channel suck. You did not answer the question you said you would. Waste of time and I am blocking your channel. F&@k off!!!!

“Only lasts 7 minutes on a 6ah battery”yeah okay. I can string trim edge and blow both my front and back yards on half a charge with an 8ah battery

I do this all the time with my blowers. As long as the snow is fresh it'll blow away very fast.

I really like my Milwaukee leaf blower

I love my Milwaukee blower. I use it almost daily. From cleaning the garage, porches, flowerbeds, yard and even trail maintenance.

Yeah, whatever. Find a new way to wake everyone up in the morning with your stupid blower. Why do you own it, if you don't have a tree or pick up leaves? Addicted to the red and black?

This tool isn’t useless. Just because you don’t have a need for it, or because it won’t do your entire back yard in 20 min doesn’t mean it’s useless. You just proved it’s not, so this title is just clickbait, or you’re bashing it for no reason.

Nice!

Anti snowboarding bigots.

Ok I'd never use sharkbite or the propress etc unless unavoidable. With that said, none of what's demonstrated is a complete failure. Sharkbite joints allow considerable motion - and the green deposit may have been a tiny seepage thst'd self-sealed. Again, I think they're all garbage and installing hundreds of them behind expensively finished walls is asking for trouble in my book, but the vid isn't objective.

How long will SharkBite last? Don't concern yourself w that. DON'T USE IT & If it's already in place get rid of it

Between my home and my business I have probably used at least 20 sharkbite fittings, valves, etc over many years. Not once has any of them leaked. I have complete confidence in them.

Plumbers don't like them that's good enough for me. Use a pro press fitting which lasts forever.

My oldest shark bite is about 20 years old now.. hot water heater inlet, and outlet when we needed to replace the tank. and it's connected to the old gray plastic pipe in an 89 manufactured home..

Improper install 100%, I have Sharkbite fittings I installed in my home over 15 years ago, flawless....

I'm guessing the installer didn't measure properly and push the copper all the way in.

Well I have shark bites from the wall to the valves to connect H & C to my vanity now going into 12 years 👍

The installer of those shark bites did not install them properly. Also, you never use sharkbites on something that is not permanently fixed. They do spin, they are supposed to spin. Until they are fixed to a pipe. Tub spout , stupid. Water line/valve, perfect.

That crap shud only be used temporarily and never buried in a wall

Rats love eating PEX pipe, but, don't seem to go for copper??

Dont use sharkbite fittings, they are crap, you can't be 100% sure they will hold. Do a proper job with soldered fittings and you know they will last the life of the copper pipe. I have seen sharkbite fittings leaking and they just pull out and flood your customer's house.

I made the mistake of using these in PEX, in a heating system. The rep I spoke with by telephone assured me "that's exactly what these are made for". After 2 heating seasons, the tiny vibration of the circulators in the system caused the internal stainless ring to wear a groove in the PEX, which allowed the system's glycol to run out on the ground. Never again... Not PEX Not Sharkbite I know of many sweated copper fittings in service more than 70 years with nary a sign of any problem, so you tell me - which costs more?

I have sharkbites in uses for over 12 years no issues

I have seen knock off push fittings fail in 6 months! I have used many genuine sharkbite fittings and have had success with them. I have several in my own attic!

Stupidest video ever
