Plumbing help required

[Duritz]

hi everyone. I wish to remove this attachment and the pipe to the left of it from the pipe going into the wall on the right. They don't seem to be threaded and don't seem to unscrew, anyone know how I undo this?

A plumber. Ring one you cheap bastard.

Lol. It'll be a two minute job and they'll gouge me $200 for it. There'll be an easy solution.

Then I'm out of ideas.

Croweater could help, perhaps.

Unscrew it daily and nightly and ever so rightly.

Whoever knows should say it'll cost Duritz $150 for you to post the answer

Looks like a push in connection.

We have the same sort of fittings for airlines. Once they are in, they're in.

You could try pushing the outer ring just inside the brass housing with a screwdriver whilst pulling on the pipe. Sometimes that works.

Yeah it looks like Sharkbite - which is a pushfit fitting. Should be able to get it with your thumb just push the outer ring as above. Make sure the water is off first

Just employ a ****ing plumber.

If your short $200 maybe you should go get a better job so you can afford luxuries like plumbers and Rub and Tugs

There's a satisfaction in being able to do things yourself. Both of your "luxuries" indicate you haven't experienced this...

Too true. I've been practicing dentistry for years

Lets be honest anyone who doesnt know how a push fitting works, probably shouldnt be doing any DIY Plumbing Work, but feel free to be a Sooz and do it yourself

whatever you do, set up a camera first and press the red record button.
ill get the popcorn....

 

[little graham]

it looks like the same sort of push in fitting on gas burner hoses. You pull the bit back, on the wall side, then it pulls out the other way.

So you title a thread plumbing help and your first post in the thread is thus

"I wish to remove this attachment and the pipe to the left of it from the pipe going into the wall on the right. They don't seem to be threaded and don't seem to unscrew, anyone know how I undo this?"

But your not trying to do DIY Plumbing.

Mind full of **** right now.

The title was accurate and more brief than "removal of one plasticky type pipe from another but they don't screw help please". It is plumbing help but diy plumbing implies things a lot more complicated than this.

But thanks for your pointless corrections they've really helped the thread. *thumbsup emoticon*

SO ultimately you are looking for DIY plumbing help despite your protests against it not being DIY plumbing.

Probably best to get a plumber in seeing as though you now admit you have no idea what constitutes plumbing.

Removing a pipe ain't plumbing dude. Just like if you put in a lightbulb you ain't an electrician. I posted a picture of a pipe asking for help how to undo it, you decided to try to divert the thread into semantics. Good for you, you sound like a great guy. *thumbsup emoticon roll eyes emoticon*

Why are you rolling your eyes at me, your the one looking to do DIY plumbing because you cant afford a plumber.

Assumption just there... I can well afford it but if it's easy enough I'd just do it myself.

Rolling eyes because you're acting like a dick. Simples!

Im not the one acting like a dick, your the one admitting that $200 is a gouge, more affluent people see it as a fair wage for a trained professional to do the work.

You seem to be getting bent out of shape because you are not getting free plumbing advice.

Thats dick acting right there.
