I might just find a way to get up there and clear it myself. Ice dams can turn into ice "damns". _______________________________________________ Shop-talk@autox.team.net Archive: http://www.team.net/

I'm torn on this subject. On the one hand, yes, why would you ever use PVC when you could use anything else, and I've heard of PVC grenade-ing with awful results. On the other, I've had a compressed

I saw a guy online use a hook tool from a pick set. Actually seemed to work better than the tool I have (like the one John posted) for removing them. Probably 30% of the time I break them with the to

Oh--seeing that reminded me of the other thing I saw online--wire cutters (dykes?). The guy forced the 'blades' under the head of the retainer, closed slightly, and pulled it out that way. (I have a

I'd think you'd just remove the section of pipe. You really can't solder a pinhole leak shut, even on water lines. Eventually the solder will give way. You can get a sleeve, I suppose, but I'd imagin
