Whats the advantage ... ( 11 months ago by wolfmankurd)
Whats the advantage of this? I mean if you are going to sand it down, apply flux heat it up?
Then why not hold the solder against pipes as well?
I've only soldered one copper joint and that was in a work shop so I don't have much experience, am I missing something?
You missed the ... ( 11 months ago by AsktheBuilder)
You missed the point that the solder is already inside the joint. Many rookies never heat the joint enough so the solder flows into the joint. When the solder melts in these fittings, you have a good joint.

"oh that is very, very cool" (1min26s)
NO! it is very, very hot, don't touch the soldered pipe because it is not cool!!!!!
(great vids by the way)

solder is the correct spelling. It's the silver stuff you see.

Many people spell it "Sawder" because in the US, we don't pronounce the L in Solder and they may be from a country where they do, so they are not used to this pronunciation.

those EZ fitting are garbage i used them once and they failed .even thouygh i clean them really good if u heat them too much which i did with my turbo torch the solder just leaked out plus i think doin it the old fashion way is much better

That is too bad. I have never had a leak. Perhaps it was operator error.

Hey Tim, at 1:25 it looks like you wanted to touch the pipe and then you realized oh yeah, it's hot!" ;)

Look again. I am sure I didn't touch it. I think I am just waving my hand near it, but I did get close.
Yeah, it just ... ( 7 months ago by Sharkie626)
Yeah, it just seemed like a very sudden reaction. :)
It is cheaper to ... ( 5 months ago by RC60618)
It is cheaper to use other type than using those, My brother is Union Plumber in Chicago,he says those fittings are for hacks and best to solder the pipe and not use those fittings
Why in the world ... ( 5 months ago by AsktheBuilder)
Why in the world would you say that when you don't know the weight of the copper in the fitting? For all you know, these fittings are heavier copper than the straight pipe. Your strong words are not welcome in this friendly ecosystem.
the fittings are ... ( 4 months ago by jaykob85)
the fittings are only as good as the person putting them together. and anyone that need a fitting with solder already in it needs to stay away from plumbing
Jaykob85, you seem ... ( 4 months ago by AsktheBuilder)
Jaykob85, you seem to know a little about plumbing. I went to your channel and there are no videos of yourself sharing your knowledge. Instead of spending all this time making comments on other people's videos, how about investing that time making your videos so we can comment about your techniques?

hi there, Im a ... ( 2 months ago by danlukecoward1)
hi there, Im a plumber/ general builder in England.. id just like to say that over here those fittings are very popular - we call them yorkshire's, maybe you guys do too, i don't know lol. But from watching your collection of videos, I have come realised that England had much stricter regulations. Here you must be qualified to regulation government standard to even think about going near a pipe or cable - even in your on home - DIY is a thing of the past. - But great videos. - Thanks
Thanks! We have ... ( 2 months ago by AsktheBuilder)
Thanks! We have strong codes here, but in many places a person can do the work themselves IF they pull a permit and get the necessary inspections. My feeling is that's the way it should be. If a person can do the work and meet the code, then what's the issue? It's no different than driving. But that being said, I've seen some horrendous drivers and horrible work done by pros who *passed* the inspections.
i am a plumber and ... ( 2 months ago by brigofsparta)
i am a plumber and a very good one at that. Yorkshire fitting and he got a drip down the pipe. and wtf is sauder??
I like how all ... ( 3 weeks ago by jokersexclusive0)
I like how all these plumbers are getting their panties in a bunch because the general populace is finding out plumbers are theives with their rates. Face it disgruntled plumbers, your fading out. Years of you and your union stealing the money of the people have made the people find better solutions.
