How long does pro press last. I mean after paying mortgage will the piping fall apart?

logic said so :
If i was a plumber I would think a pro press would decrease demand, no skill in it just about anyone can do it

I use 95% press. But I’m glad I had to solder my first 5 years. Comes in handy when there’s a tight spot where you gotta solder

solder joints will last for as long as the pipework is needed upto 100 years plus as long as the pipework is not let to corrode.

It’s not a soldering that’s the problem. It’s the chemicals that are now in your pipes for the rest of your life that will now give you memory loss

Only problem I’ve seen with propress is failure under freezing conditions. If you’re in a warm climate yr round, propress all day.
