WHY DIDNT I THINK OF THAT

in THE MAIN WALL
I hope everyone is well given all the crap we have going on. I was watching YouTube and I saw a new plumbing channel from the UK. I am very familiar with the UK ,so my curiosity took over. The channel is called PB PLUMBER and he is a very good tradesman. On his channel he has the tip of the week and when I saw this tip all I could say was " why didn't I think of that ". The youngster had a vertical pipe full of water and he smiled and said don't you just hate this, impossible to solder, too true. Then he pulls out the sprayer from a spray bottle puts the siphon in the pipe and sprays the water out of the pipe, no water. I have used straws, wet dry vacuum cleaners when I had one or just boiled the water out with the torch being splashed with boiling water. This is like so many great ideas, its so simple its genius. I have tried it and it works like a charm. Stay Well and Be Blessed Jack
