This is an easy and fast way to replace/removal this valve. I used SharkBite valves as a replacement.
I am not a licensed plumber and I do not take any responsibility for what you do to your own house or project. Seek a licensed plumber for correct removal and installation of the shark bite system. Thank you for watching.

Never put glue with a shark bite. The whole purpose of a shark bite is it’s a glue less system.

These were dolphins bites. Perfectly acceptable to use glue with dolphins bites.

good. thanks. I have one of those pipe cutters. leaves more meat to put on the new valve.

I think that 3rd metal retaining ring is better left on. It holds the decorative escutcheon plate against the wall, AND helps holds the pipe from slipping back into the wall, when pressure is applied to the pipe when new valve is being pushed on. Nice video otherwise! Beats those videos where they “twist and turn” to remove. Causing pipe scoring

You can turn counter-clockwise while pulling to take them off.

Finally, a way to remove these ridiculously stupid water valves. Still wondering why builders use these useless water valves. Well, I know it's the cost savings but these things are a freaking nightmare. Riley, thanks for the informative video.

Ass builders knowing you gonna buy the house anyways even you know that’s a potential problem, so why no rip you off a little more from that and that’s your problem now since they handed the house to you without leaking and less likely it will leak in the next 3-5 years

Folks you have seen it first on RU-vid... PVC glueing a shark bite onto Pex.... or is that PVC pipe. Next time just buy glue on fittings if it is PVC

@@justindesimone7904 what specifically is wrong with my comment that rises to the level of name calling? You mean you support glueing Sharkbite fittings on CPVC? Or do you mean it is obvious to the point I should not mention it calling out the practice? Honestly I have no idea why you are pissed of to the point of name calling. Maybe you want to explain? Maybe you don’t.

Bad idea glue on sharkbites , next time you need to change those valve you are force to cut the pipe there is no room put a new valve once you cut that pipe.

Using PVC primer and glue on a CPVC pipe before putting a sharkbite fitting on made me laugh my ass off…why would you use any primer or glue?… it’s not PVC…it was almost even funnier watching him use vice grips to loosen the bottles of primer and glue

@notto86
@notto86 2 года назад
You're probably okay but I'd be concerned about the glue and primer breaking down the O-ring in the sharkbite fitting. I use sharkbites a lot and they're surprisingly reliable -- have never had one fail. Push em on dry to copper and PEX. But in general with plumbing stuff I go exactly by the manufacturer's suggestions because the risks are too high to have a part fail.

You don’t cut this valve! You turn counter clockwise as you gently pull it towards you... and it rotates off...

In real life this doesn't work. Only in videos where you just put a brand new valve on a pipe and then immediately take it off. Cutting it off seems to be the only option left
@RotiPani75
@RotiPani75 2 года назад
Yes and rotating and gently pulling usually damages the pipe. This method makes sure you don't. I just wish builders didn't use this trash.
