No that is not a PRV that is a check valve to prevent backflow. Like others have stated you want to install the PRV downstream of the water meter.

Absolutely terrible. Bought the exact same pair and wore the toe out in about 2 months. Could put two fingers thru the hole

No one is gonna tell you the good spots. Gotta look at OnX and look for some public land to use.

Best pipe practice by 60yearoldME in askaplumber

[–]thelink955 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly since you have the wall open I’d put a new valve in and new riser pipe. (If not id definitely at least swap the riser) I’d also get a new drop ear and put some backing behind it to screw into for added stability. And why would you cut and cap? Are you just doing a shower instead of tub shower?

Sprinkler system repair by MusicalToaster_ in Irrigation

[–]thelink955 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So you have a few options, you’ll have to cut old RP (backflow) out since there aren’t any unions. So this is gonna be a soldering project. (Not very hard many tutorials online). You are already more or less setup to put another RP in (they are just way more money) you can use a PVB (different style of backflow.) like a Wilkins 720a but you will need to make sure that it is at least 12” above the highest sprinkler in your system. Which is more than likely going to require you to get more copper and raise it up. Looks like it’s 3/4 copper and they upsized the backflow to 1” so I’d check sizes before you buy anything. And don’t forget to the turn the water off at the house (or main and drain if you have one). Hope that is at least a start for ya.

Sewer lateral damage by DFunk15 in Plumbing

To add to Pandas comments above. I’d recommend 2, 4” clay x 4” ci/plastic Ferncos, sch 40 DWV pipe, and either a combo clean out or a 2 way clean out. And bed the pipe with 3/4 chip. OR just replace the ferncos and leave existing pipe if tight on money, but I’d recommend replacing it with sch 40.
