I have an old Iron Pipe coming up out of a large 2 foot high cement slab in my basement (presumably from an old now non-existent septic tank). I would like to cut it off close to the cement and cap it off.
I was going to use a SharkBite Push-To-Connect adapter, but apparently they do not support Iron Piping? Anybody have a best recommended solution for this scenario? I hate to take the time to destroy some nice-looking cement just to make the area look a little nicer and reclaim some "air space".
The old piping is so rusted and old that it looks like it will snap if I just look at it funny, much less try to remove all of the fittings and elbows, and the piece coming out of the cement goes out like 3 feet before the first threaded end is found
