DISCLAIMER: Got2Learn is NOT responsible for any damage done to a property of which the plumbing wasn't done by a professional, I do not recommend doing your own plumbing if you are unsure about what you are doing, always hire a LICENSED contractor when doing any type of plumbing so you can be covered by insurances if something does happen, these videos are for entertainment purposes only!
You always learn something new each day stay humble learn teach and respect good stuff man honestly as a plumber 50 - 100 dollars that's a good deal especially when you are soldering and water won't stop coming down and washing away the Flux man what a headache
I had to repair a vertical pipe and after deburring I was worried about the copper pieces in the pipe. So I came up with a way to deal with it that I don't think I've seen in your videos. I bunched up a bit of paper towels and put it in the pipe, deburred the pipe, then pulled it out with a pair of needle nose pliers. Worked great.
Yes, just be VERY careful that the paper towel doesn't get lost in the pipe or it'll block the pipes, I just hold the tip of the shaving while I deburr it, always works, cheers!!!!
It’s bin awhile sense I’ve watched and committed on one of your videos because I’ve bin working also non stop. But I can’t help to appreciate your presentation and your accuracy with all your videos! You know what you are doing.
Thank you so much Mike! 🙏🙏🙏
Absolutely! I appreciate watching how much you know and how well you present it! I’ve bin around a long time and have seen it all but I will admit I’ve learned a few more things with your videos. Is there a link when ordering this tool that will give you credit?
Actually, I get a small commission with amazon links!
awesome video. Been waiting for this one to drop. What a great system and animation!
Couldn't wait to drop it hehe ,thanks John, really appreciate it!
Super intéressant. Merci pour le tuyau!
THIS IS REALLY BRILLIANT
🤘🤘🤘
You are sooo great with videos ... can't say it enough. I'd watch any of your vids even if you revisited and remade some of your earlier content. You do this stuff in a very great way that's unique to you. Cheers!
Thank you so much man, you the best!!!!!!
This is a magnificent presentation.
Wonderful invention. Thank-you.
🤘🤘🤘
Boy, the Mohels are going to go crazy for this!
Nice job, easy to understand and choreographed well.
Thanks!!!
Your vids are great. Very instructional, without all the foul language and mugging for the camera like other channels.
Thank you so much!!
@@Got2Learn You got it, brother!!👍
@@justincase2281 🤘🤘🤘
BaaaRo! I didn't know about this. Thank you for educating me. I wouldn't advise this route unless absolutely needed as it has a lot of disposable parts. But when needed this is genius. You're doing good work. I work and this is helpful.
🙏🙏🙏
Depending on the pipe, water temperature, condition, etc. Perhaps it might be better to just shut the main down. If it's a heating pipe, shut it down at boiler, then do the repair. just my 2.
Cool illustration, though...
Your showing for DIY .. Got it !
I use them at least 2 or 3 times a month. Pin holes are a nightmare in 60-100 year old buildings and being able to actually "fix" the leak is huge for property owners. I can stop the leak for as long as I need to until I can fix the supply line.
great job dude
🙏🙏🙏
In the example that you did, it seems that the water is closed because looks like it has not pressure. I’ve made those mistakes of inserting screws or finish nails and the water pressure is not comparable with the video. but the tool looks useful . I’ve learn a lot from your videos thanks !
These are great kits. We use the same technique at work but with just larger jackets and use liquid nitrogen as the way to freeze. Most of the places we use these are in places that can't have a shutdown or the systems are too large or complicated to drain down then later refill, hospitals, hotels, high rise buildings. Biggest line we can freeze is 32 inches, most of them are 1-8 inch lines though.
🤘🤘🤘
Great video!

Hi mate,
I have a Virax Frezzing pipe machine, it cost only 1000-1200€ in France.
For 100€ you can rent one for a day.
I’de prefer the machine to the kiboch because in France we use 14 and 16mm pipe not the 15mm.
And in a heating loop or a heating system it don’t work properly..
if you have a water heating system with lots of rust the water freezing machine don’t work because the freezing cork can moove in the pipe
great video! something to consider having as an emergency backup. What i've always been looking for, is a way to make crimped SS braided hoses, like for sink/washer/sprayer/whatever connections. many times i'm installing a custom system, and would love to be able to make my own custom Stainless Steel braided hoses, but haven't found any info anywhere.
well first you need to get the hose . i know where to get teflon braided hose but not cheap stuff like for toilets. then order copper or stainless ferrules at mcmaster carr and a crimper which you can get online for air hoses.
Thanks bro 👍
You're welcome!!!
Can you do a video on automatic air vents and when they may be useful. I'm plumbing a water filter, softener, and uv, and am looking for a clean way to plumb into it to purge air when I have to change the filters. Any suggestions? I'm already plumbing the 3 valve bypass, but I want a way to just quickly purge the air in the a basement without it getting through to all the upstairs fixtures. Thoughts?
Update: to clarify supply line automatic vents/air separators
wow. thank you sir
Yw!!!
Hey hey!!! How ya doing ... haven't seen any notifications lately for vids.
How the hell does someone down vote a video that is nothing but pure gold information?
Haters ;)
@@Got2Learn It might not be the 'right' tool for every application, but I never knew about this tool before and now knowing that it exists is good info. thx
@@rgentbuilders 🤘🤘🤘
Wow good to know amazing
🤘🤘🤘
Thank you
🙏
Many thanks
You are welcome!!
The Kibosh is also limited to the size of the pipe, I have used the Ridgid machine to install isolation valves on 2 inch pipe, was well worth the price if you have a lot of work, which I did.
Does this freeze the water inside of the pipe, or just the pipe itself?(I have a situation where I can't shut off the water to the building and have problems with the landlord and can't get him to fix something with my valves)
Inside and outside.
@@Got2Learn YES! This sounds like exactly what I need then-thanks!
NICE TRICK, WITH THE SPRAY BOTTLE!!
🤘🤘🤘
Wow this tool is awesome. I used to work with the rigid freeze machine it took 1 hour to freeze a 7/8" copper pipe.
Can I use this on a 3/4 copper water main? I want to replace the gate valve on my main before the water meter to a ball valve . How much space to I need to leave from the freeze kit to the soldering point?
Yes, this totally works on 3/4" pipe, you just need more gas to keep a plug!
Kenny pipe sold this rig 15yrs ago. That PVC freezing is definitely questionable. If you can't stop water from dripping then you should just sell them a new valve. We used a pro press on any copper over 1 and half just to keep from draining all pipes above you in high rises. Pro press a valve on with a bucket under it and you are ready to go
That's fine if you're a plumber. For your average homeowner, the idea of spending thousands of dollars on pro press clamps can't be justified.
Sharkbite are life savers!
Never knew they even made something like this before 😳 Luckily I haven't drilled thru a water pipe in the wall or needed something like this and hope I never do 🤐 They always make something that might be needed if u look hard enough 😎
😉
Thanks and you can use two if needed right? One on each side.
Yup!!
Awesome
Yes!!
Wow that’s cool.
Very yes, love it!!!
Cute. So you have to do this fast. Whats a quick way to know which is the supply side of the line?
Was this done with the mains still on? Or the water shut off?
Main on
This doesn't work for hot water lines right?
So your actually freezing the pipe so you can solder a repair coupli g or a fitting if there is water in the line ?
Exactly!
To me, I would use it more for those situations where, even after draining the line, there's that drip, drip, drip that you can't stop. Most times, for that I'll just shove bread into the line. However, I had one case where after I turned the water back on, the bread didn't dissolve, but instead shot into a few sink aerators and even a washing machine hose, causing me to have to clean them all out.
I've always wanted one of those freeze systems, but they're too expensive for a homeowner to justify. This KiBosh system looks interesting. I'll probably buy it.
@@dontbanmebrodontbanme5403 🤘🤘🤘
@@dontbanmebrodontbanme5403 yes that's exactly what happens when you do bread ! Here in so. Cal. We shut down meter at the Street then break the union nut to let
water go back in the meter hole. but in Canada I'm sure the meters are different
Even better than a spray bottle is a drill pump you can get for like 6$ at harbor freight and some cheap vinyl tube to quickly and completely drain the pipe, without water touching one end of the plug it will likely stay frozen in place longer
⚡⚡⚡
This is good when there's water in the line after you shut off water supply. That trickle that drives you nuts!!
Yeah!!
can it be used for horizontal?
Of course :)
How high did you cut above the clamp
About 1 foot
kick ass. ill take one.
Yup, link in description box 👍
If frozen pipes are a problem in certain areas due to it bursting the pipes , how does this products freezing process differ and not cause bursting,?
This is only for 10 minutes and the plug is too small to expand and burst ;)
@@Got2Learn Thank you.
Can that work on pvc?
Yes, but you'll need twice the amount of gas to freeze it ;)
Seems like a lot of extra work ! Can just shut off meter at the street and brake union nut at meter. or even a jet fitting ! But to each is to own...
The last time I called my city to close the water at the street, it took them 3 hours to get to my place...just sayin'.
@@Got2Learn where are you ? In California license plumbers can shut off meters at the street !
Montreal, that's not allowed here.
@@stiffysap5841 I’m in Massachusetts can’t do it here either and I know our curb stops are much further in the ground than California, it’s the worst trying to get them turned off in the winter time when they are buried under 2’ of snow
@@Got2Learn I think you live in Montreal to know this info!
My question is can you use it on a water main coming into a house, for instance if a gate valve gets stuck shut and you want to replace it with a ball valve instead of calling the city to shut the water off at the curb
Yes.
Now do this with commercial plumbing 😜 😂
Plumbers will be pissed watching this! Just like shark bites.
I want to go outside goa and work as a plumber please help me sir
You will need your plumbing licenses for that, you need to go to plumbing school first!
can just use air duster
Got 1(5/8)" copper pipe in my house. Stores don't carry this size. 1(1/2)" copper pipe is. ID of 1(5/8)" pipe Is 1(1/2)". Should I be able to fit the 1(1/2)" inside the 1(5/8)" for soldering?
Just a small thing: please don't show soldering without putting a fireproof protector behind the pipe. Thats asking for damage or a fire.
I normally use one for I had a lot of space here.
Did you destroy your own wall just for this? Talk about commitment.
Prop wall :)
Hello sir I m a plumber in india
Hi there!
I wouldn't use this product. Just like I wouldn't use cold shot. If im in a tiny bathroom in an apartment building I wouldnt want to die from lack of oxygen to fix a pipe. The cllamp they make works great. If you can't get the water off call the city/town ot kill the power to the well.
That stuff is as cold as my ex-wife mon ami 😁
🤭🤭🤭 good one lolllll
Jet sweat. ..
GWP psssshhhhhhhhhhh
Or you could just locate the main shut off valve before you start your work and shut it off in the event an accident happens.
Rewatch the video lol
I think it’s pronounced ‘kY-bosch’, not ‘ka-bosch’. It’s an old word. At least that’s how I’ve heard it pronounced for the past 50 years.
Seems unnecessarily complicated. Just shutoff the water and drain the system.
Have you listened to what I said in the video?
@@Got2Learn you know your gonna get that response not matter if you say it clearly or not. Its just part of teaching an online class to students that haven't signed up for the full class just the bits and pieces that sound interesting. I feel for you, I'd lose cool and every subscriber know to man! Keep rockin' you videos are fanominol!
@@beerbeforebreakfast Thanks for the push man, definitely needed that... ;)
@@Got2Learn we all need a push sometimes! And ya never now where it will come from! 🤝
@@beerbeforebreakfast true!!!!
Hahaha
