My general sense with Sharkbite, is that a couple years from now the
shark teeth will corrode. And a lot of fittings will be popping off.


Fluoride in the water.

*As long as the fitting doesn't leak, non of the flouride will ever
see any parts that will corrode - assuming you still have flouridated
water. In Waterloo region the last municipal election, which had a
turnout of some 40%, had a plebecite on flouridation and by a 1%
margin of that low turnout, flouride was shut off.


It was a son-of-a-dentist joke. Corroding teeth in the Sharkbite...?
Fluoride in the water? Sigh. Nevemind.
