In Colorado we bury our water lines 6 foot deep man yours is a piece cake.
Ya, I love Colorado. Beautiful state. But that right there tells you how cold it gets.
So today didn't go as planned.
I took some last minutes measurements at the water meter before I took anything apart.
The threads just to that nut are 1-1/4", so I orded a 1-1/4" FIP fitting that had a 1" MIP end.
Wrong.
That new fitting has an inside nut diameter of 1-1/2".
Went to Ace Hardware and looked at fittings, and realized a 1" brass fitting has a 1-1/4" threaded FIP diameter.
Had to drive 45 minutes to Home Depot in Wichita Falls to get a 1" FIP X 3/4" MIP meter adapter, and then a 3/4" FIP to 3/4" PEX adapter.
This makes way more sense than the 1-1/4" to 1" fitting that I then had to reduce to 3/4".
The first fitting and adapter is at the top. The fitting and adapter I just bought is at the bottom.
I'm pretty confident that I have the right fitting now. I'm glad I re-checked thos before I took everything apart and started assembling the new line.
