[QUOTE="Shoot Summ, post: 1466479, member: 1055"] Sweat is the highly technical term for soldering copper pipe/fittings..... Yes, pex like on that page, so it would be copper to pex transition, then pex to the valve. You will need to remove the valve/fittings anyway most likely to fix the small copper leak unless you are really lucky and can get it to seal up. It's iffy, the only way to be certain is to pull it apart, clean it really well, and sweat it again. Or hire Plumbntz, he seems to have the skillz on this one... [/QUOTE]
