Crews have begun installing the main copper water lines serving the second floor of the historic Peoples Bank building. These lines are being installed with a modern press-fit system that uses small-toothed compression fittings to create a secure seal, eliminating the need for welding. The plumbing runs along the ceiling of the first floor, forming the backbone of the second-floor water supply.
