Reply to comment by BigSquatchee2 in Sharkbite connectors PSA by InfiniteCurrency8

Ok, show this data then?

Pardon me for having an open mind until I actually see some data proving otherwise. I don't live life on the subjective opinions of others.

Fuck people seem to take such personal offense over their precious "soldered fittings" here.

And LOL at the "you represent sharkbite" comment, good one. What a stupid comment, would be like me saying you represent big copper.

Yeah if the rest of their arguments didn't seal it for you that they're an idiot, the "omg ur a shill" comment really locks it in huh

I mean, the data is pretty clear when you search for joint failure in copper pipe and see what people complain about.
If sharkbite is such a great fitting, why don't they warranty it for more than 25 years? The expected lifespan of a solder joint is 50+.

That’s not data, that’s anecdotal evidence.

Copper isn’t warrantied at all…sooooooo…😂

The copper in a sharkbite isn't either. But good plumbers will warranty their work. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
