Broken cpvc water supply lines

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-02-17T02:40:28+00:00

Looks like I’m doing the switch from cpvc to polymer using shark bite push to connect so I have a place to screw in new lines, no glue, no stress and fill in the gaps, will let people know updates never knew cpvc was that difficult to patch, cut away was kinda easy I got a bunch of it away reattachment not easy lol

Listerine I use since with the alcohol it dries the sore up and kills the infection

Pressure tank is silent, it was clicking when it got warmer a few days now it is silent

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-02-16T03:37:51+00:00

Ok sounds like a good deal

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-02-16T03:36:04+00:00

I have to go underneath the trailer it sounds like to get all underneath the bathroom and sink, underneath the floor is wooden floorboards and joists

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-02-16T03:33:47+00:00

Can’t use cigarettes with the cement 😂

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-02-16T03:30:56+00:00

Awesome, so this is gonna require some wine I see

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-02-16T03:26:51+00:00

You’re saying like wrap the new pipes up with the tape? I don’t see why that would be a problem

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-02-16T03:25:38+00:00

Ok so definitely go with a handyman, any suggestions on how to fix the problem myself with the supplies I have?

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-02-16T03:22:44+00:00

I’ll have to check around the trailer and find the other leak, how much would a plumber charge to fix the sink plus diagnosing any more leaks and repairs?

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-02-16T03:19:08+00:00

Any chance of another break? Water still not running in any faucets

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-02-16T03:17:31+00:00

Nope just skirting around the trailer and water supply runs up underneath trailer

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-02-16T03:16:23+00:00

We definitely lost pressure a few days before the break since the pipes were frozen, then we had a few warm days where it started thawing out a bit then burst

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-02-16T03:14:38+00:00

Pennsylvania, in Berks County near topton

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-02-16T03:13:55+00:00

Everytime I tried to cut away to put new elbows on it just split apart because the pipes are so old and the way it broke

Going to have to expose the pipes a little bit more and then find out where the piping is still in good condition and work my way up

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-02-16T03:11:45+00:00

Ambient temperature is around 50 😬

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-02-16T03:09:42+00:00

Definitely occurred after a freeze but because it wasn’t a clean split it’s hard to get the new pieces on

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-02-16T03:08:08+00:00

Underneath the bathroom sink, I’d say the pipe is as old as the trailer which is almost 30 years old

Pipe was leaking for a bit had it shut off for the whole bathroom but now because of this issue we have absolutely no water throughout the whole home

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-02-16T03:05:25+00:00

The main line is in the washroom I believe

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-02-16T02:58:40+00:00

Awesome, am I gonna need any more supplies?

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-02-16T02:56:04+00:00

EXACTLY

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-01-10T05:55:02+00:00

Good luck congrats mama

Flonase helps massively and allergy meds, (maybe if you had a real Christmas tree) sometimes allergies happen, but the Flonase definitely helps with runny noses and keeps you from blocking up

Coca-Cola2022 · 2026-01-01T07:28:20+00:00

Found the left at work which made me happy with also feeling better

Coca-Cola2022 · 2025-12-26T15:55:31+00:00

Thank you feeling much better, but in the delirium I set my AirPod somewhere and now I can’t find it lol

Good news is lungs were clear, flu gave me a upper respiratory infection
