providing said conduit in an associated building slab so that said conduit projects from the surface of the slab;
cutting a portion of said conduit which projects above the surface of the slab;
cutting said conduit at an inside surface thereof to form a connection region;
providing a transition coupling;
inserting said transition coupling into said connection region of said conduit, and securing said inserted transition coupling to said conduit;
providing cooperating male and female connectors, and joining one of said male and female connectors to said secured transition coupling, and
joining the other of the male and female connectors to the one of the male and female connectors so as to thereby join the tubing to the conduit in the slab and create a liquid-tight connection between the conduit and tubing.
