PB supply line?

[John Dirks Jr]

On a job yesterday I found this supply line under one of the bathroom sinks. The house originally had PB throughout. The customer said it all had been replaced. All of the other lines I could see were CPVC that changed to braided steel before attaching to fixtures.

I didnt know that PB came in this size. It is about 7/16" dia. Just to be sure before I finalize my comment to them,

Is this PB?

Yes it is PB. However the short leads from water cutoff valve under sinks are not usually called out in report. They are also present in houses with all copper or CPVC branch lines.

See them all of the time, even on newer homes. They do not have the problematic connectors.
