I know that nobody has had any pipes freeze and find out when they are opening that they have a pressing water problem. Well, we had it this year and ended at home depot.

We were buying couplings and a section of pipe, my son asked the man if their was anything we could use that does not require soldering. He showed us this brass device that you cut the pipe, clean the burrs of and push it on till it snaps. It is a bit pricey, however in a tight spot it does work great. I forget the name, but it covers up to a two inch splice. Cut out the splice and put it on. no drip, done in about 2 min.
