Hi,
I need to do a repair on the 1” water main under the slab.
My research showed that the fitting needs to be brazed (not soldered). However I couldn’t find out if pex fitting is ok?
Ideally I would transition to pex, the reroute the pex out of the slab (20ft to go).
Is a brass pex fitting under slab ok?
Either PEX-B or PEX-A ok here?
This would be a lot cheaper than getting soft copper type K (as L and M are not ok for under slab).
Thank you
