Having successfully utilized a spray can product for small repairs, I am now faced with a larger area and am questioning the suitability of this approach.

A plumbing connection where copper pipe transitions to PEX tubing using a blue plastic elbow fitting. The copper pipe comes down through a hole in the wooden framing, connecting securely into the fitting, while the PEX pipe is fastened with a clamp. Expanding spray foam insulation surrounds the assembly, providing thermal protection and sealing gaps. This type of setup is typical in modern construction for combining older copper supply lines with flexible PEX, which is easier to install in tight spaces.
