I'm replacing the indoor section of the plumbing that feeds our sprinkler system. The old PVC threaded fittings screwed in far enough that the shoulder of the fitting contacted the body of the vacuum breaker, but the new fittings bottom in the VB with more than 1/2 in. of thread still showing. Would it be a good idea to cut enough off the threaded portion of the PVC fittings so that none of the threaded part (which I assume is the weakest part) is unsupported by the body of the VB?
