No this is indoors in a dry warm place. It's like there's pin holes in the sharkbiteLooks like sea spray to me.
It's the salty air from the ocean.
Folks on the other side in Newfoundland get loads of it.
I doubt you are the first one with this issue.It's like there's pin holes in the sharkbite
Really? The OP (original poster) is in Canada, and I am in Canada, and both the Home Depot and Lowes here both sell genuine Sharkbite fittings. Are you implying stores in your local area sell imitation knock offs, and can you kindly mention which stores exactly so the rest of the readers here can learn to avoid?The big-box "home improvement centers" are full of plumbing parts made from cheap imitation Chinese brass, or plating which only resembles brass, which start corroding at the first touch of moisture. Many of those parts are made in imitation of other, better- known and presumably better-made products.
No plumbing above. This is a shark put in when they first came out. It's in a completely dry areaAny chance there's been something dripping on the fitting from above? It's going to be pretty ugly if SB's start failing on a
big scale. Now I'm glad I've only put in a small handful in "permanent" piping.
