My 25 year old house was originally all plumbed with copper. I need to replace the bathtub control valve and spout. Rather than use copper again, which is a pain and I'm not very experienced at it (I have done some sweat soldering, but that was a long long time ago in a galaxy far far away), instead I got a fitting at Menards that will fit onto the 1/2" (approx 5/8" OD) copper pipe with a ring (ferrule?) that tightens down onto the copper pipe (I forgot what this type of fitting is called) which converts to a 1/2" male pipe thread, then I can screw a plastic1/2" female pipe thread to 1/2" CPVC pipe adapter onto it. Then I can do the plumbing with CPVC. Has anyone done this? If so, how tight do I need to tighten the nuts for the fitting?
