Default PVC Compression coupling - suitable for outdoor water pipe, andlife span?

Just replace the ENTIRE LINE, leave nothing of the existing
line....!!!!!!!

if you want overkill and PEX is permitted in your area......

Run the PEX inside a PVC line from curb to meter....

this minimizes digging in the future and protects the line from
mechanical damage. if the PEX ever has a problem just dig at each end
and snake a new line thru the PVC, use schedule 40 for added
durability....

I wouldnt use copper too many people are stealing it
