Hi,


What issues will I face trying to put a tee here and what should I do

Many thanks in advance!

No problem. *Take apart the union, take off one pipe, cut 5-6" off it,
rethread it with your ratchet threader, and use short nipples to get
the union back in place. *Shouldn't take more than 20 minutes or so.

Thanks!

It was my first time threading and doing it in-place was a pain, and
took a hell of a lot longer than 20 minutes, but the results are good.

Bubba, perhaps you don't live in Philly, but local plumbers were
asking $350-$500 for the job.
