Hello all,

I have an artesian well that has been disconnected from my house and
is now only a 1 5/8" inch PVC pipe sticking out of the ground in
my
front yard.

It flows at about 5 gallons per/minute.

I currently have a plastic cap on it with a hose clamp to stop it from
running.

I\'d like to put a hose bib on it so that I can use the water in
various uses when I want to.

How in the world can I work with this? How can I glue anything to this
pipe while it\'s running?

Is there some method that would allow me to cap this thing properly
where I could then add on to this system? Getting a valve into the
line is my problem.

How can I put a valve into this line?



Use a rubber coupling.

Also I think there's blue PVC cement for wet use. You could glue on a
thread adapter. Don't screw on the cap or a valve until the glue sets.
