A dielectric union is needed between copper and brass attached to galvanized. Ford makes a IPS slip style adapter that will slip over IPS pipe and has a IPS thread adapter. It also has a locking bolt to prevent the joint from slipping off.

@Got2learn I have to tell you, right now, you are my hero! For 3 days I have been searching for a proper way to repair a broken connection at a solder point where the previous individual soldered (or attempted) a copper pipe to a threaded galvanized elbow connected to a galvanized pipe. I discovered it trying to figure out how to remove an old galvanized outdoor spigot from a galvanized pipe. Since the spigot was rusted, I went to turn it, and it turned the entire pipe breaking the soldered joint. Where the copper pipe was soldered into the threaded elbow, it came out clean. It looked like a plug of solder typically found at a cold solder joint. I have searched high and low as to how I might connect the copper piping and the elbow. Being a novice to self-help plumbing issues, I had no idea One should not try to solder 2 dissimilar! Now I know what I have to do. Time to seek a brass coupling. I thank you for that. I can't use PEX or a SharkBite in this location because of the limited spacing to work. Do let me know if my idea of putting a brass piece between the copper and galvanized steel is not the solution I think it is. On my way to Home Depot! Thank you!

Thank you so much Roger, I really appreciate that. Yes, some people prefer not using Sharkbite fittings and that's ok, I personally prefer having them outside of a wall, but I know plenty of contractors that installed these inside walls and never had any problems with them, it really depends if they are correctly installed or not I believe.

My house was built in Texas USA in 1988. I have PB pipe in the ground, transitioning to copper just prior to the feed valve which lives in an access box just outside the house foundation. There is no PB in the house, only copper. I have 3 separate feeds into different wings of the house and one of them has developed a leak at the PB-to-copper transition (compression union). The union is well outside the valve box (about 2 feet). I can cut the PB back, lengthen the copper, and install a new union/coupler. But unless I install a second box, the transition will get backfilled and live underground (as it has for 34 years). I have a couple of PB-to-PB repairs in the ground elsewhere in the yard, where trenchers cut the PB years ago. Those repairs are buried in the ground and seem to be doing just fine. Is it OK and advisable to do the PB-to-copper transition in the ground with a SharkBite coupler? Or should I locate and use a new compression coupler/union for this underground fix? Should I place the transition in a box instead of burying it? I have to do one of these things ; I can't afford to dig up the hundreds of feet of buried PB and have copper all the way to the street.

So, I'm replacing a brass curbstop valve and it is situated on a 3/4 inch (schedule 80 I think) PVC. It looks like the original pipe is glued into a (MIP fitting?) and then threaded into the valve. I'm wondering if it is necessary for me to do what they did because my replacement pipe is threaded already? Can't I just thread it in with joint compound? (of course I will need to glue the new pipe to the old with a coupling back where I cut it)

Poly pipe only had problems on the hot side and it was just the fittings not the pipe itself, thats why they had a class action law suit against it along with some other types of b-pex, stick with uponor type a-pex (the clear pex) and use the expansion rings made from the same material and get 25% more flow rate compared to crimp style rings... I own a plumbing company for 21 years and was voted best repair plumber in the state of Oklahoma!!!

I don’t doubt that this has been your experience, but the statement about it only being on the hot side and only on the fittings is inaccurate. I’m a plumber myself and have personally been involved on far more whole home repipes due to poly pipe failures than I can begin to count. I’m almost every situation (possibly even 100%) these failures where on the piping, not the fittings. I’ve also seen an equal amount of failures on both hot and cold pipe.

Good tip if transitioning from CPVC to copper, solder your female adaptor before putting it on the transition fitting. The heat from soldering could compromise the CPVC. So get it soldered, and let it cool before

Best transitioning video out here more in depth on how to transition, makes me wonder now if I should add 8' of pex under my kitchen cabinet or just use new galvanized pipe again going all the way from kitchen cabinet the elbow through the wall all way to the water heater outlet of 5' pex? Just don't know if the pex can handle the water heater heat even though I would yet connect the pex into braided stainless steel hose coming out of the water heater?

Another option if you dont want to solder when converting copper to pex is to use ProPress fittings. They make adapters that go from Copper to Pex. All you need is a manual propress tool, if you don't want to spend the ~$1000 for the power press tool

I got old galvanized pipes and the hot water broke at the TEE so had no threads. Used a galvanized coupling like the one u showed but every few days it keeps popping the pipe off. I know my water psi is not above 150psi any idea why it keeps popping off?

Brass to steel will still corrode. A dielectric union will work, but you can't bury them or drywall over them. Dielectric nipples, like you find on water heaters are good, for 3/4". But total re-pipe is best in the case of steel pipe. As Colin Powell said to Daddy Bush, "You touch it, you own it. " Another great video, thanks.

Thanks you so much! Yes, any dissimilar metal connected together will eventually corrode, some are less quick at doing so :)

Thanks for the great video. Wondering if it is ok to use stainless steel pinch clamps for polyb transition joints? Thanks.

I went into a house to install a softener and I wasn’t fully awake and when I went to cut the lines I realized it was all galvanized. Luckily the guy just said rip it all out. That was a long day

I just came across a SharkBite coupler with a threaded female end. It looks like it's designed for use with theaded steel pipe. I'm wondering if that is suitable for use with galvanized to Copper transitions?

brass to galvanized is a LOT more resistant than copper to galvanized, so yes these can be used to do just that!

5:46 I don't understand the parts that are being used to transition between galvanized steel and the pex (the one on the left). It looks like male PVC threads coming out of the steel, with a brass ring around it. Don't know if that's one piece or two. Can you do a video showing that connection being put together, and what it's made up of? Also, there's a crimp ring, but I don't know what's inside the pex, so I don't know what the pex is being crimped around. You say to 'use the same adapters as before' but I don't see that set up anywhere in the video.
