Hose Bibs vs Water Main

Thanks to all. I really appreciate all your information. My wife and I think what we're going to do is to hire a contractor. We live in an over 50 community and several homes here have had a contractor put their systems in. THis seems the best way.

Once again I really appreciate all your help. thanks again dave
