Yes you can add 3/4 pipe extensions. My neighbor added 5 3/4" black pipe extensions to dig a shallow well.

Yes. Depending on what you will use pull it you may need a piece of sq tubing.

You can not use anything above the 5# model due to the size of the opening i have this model and they don't make a tube small enought for this reason

Yes you can! If fact you may want to hold the pipe with this tool and turn the union with another tool.

I used 1/2" Female pipe by 3/4" pex. The valve is 1/2" but I wanted to upsize the pex tubing for increased flow.

I'm not a plumber, but I would say no. Not without you attaching some sort of fitting that is designed to go from copper to Pex style plumbing. I would use a shark bite type fitting to convert the copper end to pex, and then go from there. Hope that helps!

Yes you can. It works on different sizes of PVC. Take it to the hardware store and test some sizes out first before getting the pipes to see what you like better.

I'm not sure but they do advertise that you can expand the system. This is kind of a starter kit so I would think maybe try 100' and see how powerful it is at the end of the line. Of course it will depend upon your water pressure also

As I recall it was 3/8". If you take the line to Lowes or Home Depot and show them they should be able to fit you with the right fitting. Mine had 3/8" male threaded on the one end (You have to remove a nut to use it) and 1/2" female copper on the other, so I had to solder a short length of copper line to that end and then I could join it to my 1/2" PEX lines. Hope this helps

I can't answer any question about the legality of using an extension. You'd have to check with your local officials. The connector supplied is for screwing to a male gas cock and isn't suitable to join two hoses together. There may be fittings you could obtain separately.

Any hardware store that sells plumping parts can help you adapt the pump to the intex flex hoses. You won't be able to just screw hose to pump like the intex pump. I've got about $15 in the adapters and pipe.

You can use existing tubes. If the old tubes were holding air and maintaining a good pressure they should do OK.

I haven't used this big stuff yet, but have used the littler tubing. It is not stretchable. They shrink down incredibly well, but don't stretch.

The "rings" are a copper crimp rings that you purchase separately. If you are using 1/2" pex tubing you would purchase 1/2" pex crimp rings. Now in connecting copper to pex, you might soldier a pex brass fitting to the copper, put a crimp ring over the pex tubing, slide the pex tubing onto the brass fitting then crimp with this tool. After which, you can check with the enclosed guage to see if you did it correctly. If not, you need to remove the crimp ring. Therefore (mistakes are made), I would / did buy the pex ring remover tool, which enables you to remove the ring without damaging the fitting. If only doing a small job, SharkBite type fittings might the way to go. The "rings" are a copper crimp rings that you purchase separately.

As with the other responses, it uses the standard PEX compression rings found at any store that sells PEX fittings (I have only used the copper, but have never had a leak). If you are splicing into Poly-B with PEX, it will also crimp the ring for the PB side that comes in the splice kit (don't get them mixed-up, they have a different inside diameter).

yes you can! as long as it fit the tube, or you just fill the grease in the tube it work excellent...
