Hi,
I'm moving a kitchen back to the original room. (It was moved by the previous owners into a bedroom!)
This is directly below where the sink will be:
We think the simplest thing would be to make the PVC to copper transition using the clean out plug. We'd put in a new pvc clean out on top of it, so that we could have access into the pipe if we needed it.
Would that be a bad plan?
(Another thread on this forum said that screwing a male pvc adapter into a female copper pipe is fine. So that gives me hope for the simple fix.)
Our other option would be to un-sweat the copper plug and use a rubber adapter (furnco?) to make the pvc to copper transition. To me, that seems a little less desirable, but I figure I should let the plumbers make that call.
Is there a third option we should pursue?
Thanks,
Nathan
