    Hi all, Does anyone know the thread specs for Delta 212 ball? I have tried fitting a 8-32 screw and it is very close, but not the same. Is it metric? Thanks.

    PEX Directly to Faucet

    Black poly tubing for potable water

    How can I tell which black poly tubing is for potable water and which isn't? Which rating/certification do I look for? The Home Depot website does not state in plain English if the tubing is for potable water or not. Thanks.

    Acceptable leak?

    Three hundred feet of underground waterline leaks 2 gallons per day. The pipe is 3/4" schedule 40 PVC. Someone else has installed the waterline. Big trees near where the line is. Replace the line or live with it? How likely is it that it will start pouring all of a sudden? Thanks.
