Solider vs Compressing fitting?
Current the valve is >30 years old and leaking at the steam. I am not
sure if I can just change out a waster or not. The valve is currently
soldired to the copper pipe. Is one way better then the an other? I
would like to buy a good valve, one that would last at least another
30 but I don't know if the quality matters. Also, there is a hard
metal pipe that feeds the toliet tank. I am thinking about replacing
this with a flex pipe? Good idea or not?
I'm don't have a lot of experience with soldiering but I know the
basics. So, is one way better then the other?
