Ok lets begin with I myself have been a contractor for 40 yrs and have used a torch and hot iron to do plumbing in homes for yrs; And that being said i had to carry insurance to work in home's to cover for any fire damage while plumbing; And this is what would scare off the home owner because they did not know how to use a torch to soldier with; Well now with this new Propress Machine there is no need for soldiering and open flames; This Propress is so simple you will be amazed on what it can do; It makes it easy for the home owner to tackle plumbing jobs that would cost them a great deal of money to hire a plumber;
The fittings come in different sizes from 3/8 to 1/2 to 3/4 and 1 inch and up depending on what you are getting done in your home; There is different sizes of ball valves to go along with the fittings; You can use it on hard copper and soft copper pipes; and you can use it on steam pipes also; The Propress machine can be gotten at hard ware stores at a sale price of less than $100.00 Thats the one pictured here; or you can rent them at a rental store by the hour or the day. All most all of the fittings can be gotten at the hard ware store or you can order them on line; You can go to a you tube channel and watch a video on how this Propress is used and how to operate one; its very simple and if you have basic working skills you will be able to use one of these in no time; Just the cost alone of this Propress machine will pay for itself from hiring a plumber; I myself have all most given up on soldiering just because of the open flames and the hasel of soldiering pipes and fitting togather;
