I just had to buy one of those, about 60 bucks. Here's what I would do; crack the bottom first and then crack the top to fill. In other words avoid a pressure hammer to fill the line. Second thing is dissolved O2 is going to percolate to the top. They used to make, used them, a valve to let O2 out at the top. About the size of a soda can.

Was thinking about you. My wife wanted water at her greenhouse, OK. Short version is I had to splice into a 1" pvc to run a bit for the frost free. The point is tying into buried PVC isn't easy. I used a slip fit. They used to make a snap fit T but no longer. You can make one by cutting a bit off a standard T. Use medium set glue. BTW slip fits only work on pressurized lines, not suction.

Matt, I am sorry. I was on the MC side long ago. 18 YO ran a stop and my only choice was where to hit not if. Choose the left rear and my knee still hurts. Best wishes.
