    Good job, Von! At least he didn't put you on his "wading list"!

    @Von Jones I had the same thing happen. The original install used poly tubing and even though I replaced the leaking end, following instructions, it wasn't long before it leaked again. I called a plumber and was told to replace the poly tube with copper. He quoted $550-$700 since he had to get under the house. I didn't have that kind of spare cash. I bought the copper tube kit and did it myself. I forgot I wasn't young and agile. After the line was run I got hung up and couldn't get out. My jeans were hung on a nail and I couldn't reach far enough to get free. Shining my flashlight around I saw mouse skeletons and black widow spiders. I unfastened my pants and crawled out on my back in a hurry cutting my legs on all the old concrete pieces that were left after construction. My jeans are still under there. Hopefully that copper will outlast me.
