Does that repair kit thing only come in plastic, not brass or metal ? Seems like it can break easily when turned to operate.
@BajraDIY5 күн бұрын
@jakec5618 - The plastic kit should work without any issues. I have never had any problems. Make sure you don't overtighten the bonnet nut. The bonnet nut only needs to be tight enough to prevent it from leaking. Otherwise, it will be tough to turn if overtighten. Also, clean the inside of the shutoff valve properly if old rubber pieces do not come out. I think Brasscraft also makes metal kits, but plastic should work fine.

Had no idea you could even repair these! Thanks for the instructional video! Still water leakage can cause a litany of issues. I’d still upgrade to a quarter turn ball valve. But a great piece of information for anyone without the proper tools to do a complete valve change. Thank you for this video!
I want to do this fix on my valves, but I'm worried something might go wrong and I'll be forced to leave the main water line shut off and I won't be able to use water in the house. Is there any chance something might go wrong by doing this fix? What would you rate the success rate of doing this repair?
@BajraDIYАй бұрын
I have successfully fixed many valves using this method without any issues. However, I have encountered challenges when removing the old valve parts. 1. In the video, I have the toilet supply line (braided line) disconnected because I was also replacing the toilet. Removing the toilet line was particularly difficult, and I was concerned that the CPVC pipe sticking out of the wall might break. Replacing the bonnet nut and stem was easy, but it's crucial not to put too much strain on the CPVC pipe at any given time. If you have a copper line, you're in better shape. Just use new stem with washer and new washer for the bonnet nut, as shown in the video. Use two wrenches, one to hold the body and the other to loosen or tighten the bonnet nut. 2. In another project, the old plastic stem (original valve, 20 years old) on the hot water line was almost chewed up, possibly due to chemical reactions in the hot water line. Removing it was tricky since it nearly broke when turning. 3. I also encountered a situation where the shut-off valve handle would not turn at all. It was stuck, and at that time, the only option was to replace the shut-off valve. I ended up calling a plumber. This was before I had any DIY skills. :-) All of my challenges were encountered when removing the old parts. If you're able to remove the old stems and valves, installing new parts is easy as long as you follow the directions. But please seek professional help and hire a plumber if you have any doubts. Also, make sure that your main water shut-off valve is working properly before starting any plumbing projects.

Why should we avoid this unless people want to avoid a momentary vinegar aroma :-)? I have seen HVAC technicians come for a yearly check-up and do the same thing (vinegar or Clorox bleach), clean coil fins, and check compressor capacitor capacitance and charge anywhere from $80-$100. What's wrong with this DIY preventive maintenance?

Is there a benefit to doing what you did compared to replacing the valve?
@BajraDIY3 ай бұрын
A new valve, particularly a quarter-turn valve, generally has a longer lifespan than a multi-turn valve. However, replacing the rubber washer in a multi-turn valve is a simple task that any average DIYer like myself can complete within minutes. Most of the time, other parts of the valve are still in good shape even after 20-30 years, and just a washer fix can extend the operability of the multi-turn valve by another 7-10 years. On the other hand, replacing the entire valve is a more complex process that involves removing the compression nut and ferrule and cleaning the pipe for the new ferrule and shutoff valve. Depending on the situation, access to more tools will be required, and a professional plumber may be needed.

You also might have a house where the valve is soldered on to the copper pipe. This is not a bad option based on skills and risk.

And in his case with old CPVC pipe sticking out of the wall it could easily break or leak if the whole valve is replaced as opposed to just repairing it.
@jazzcornertv2 ай бұрын
@@everythinghomerepair1747 And another good reason to repair the guts is that you bought a craftsmaster repair kit and then find out there was a popular brand 30 years ago named Watts all over "YOUR OLD HOUSE" and the parts crumbled in your hands, but the craftsmaster thin plastic gasket can be sliced gently and put on the watts. Make some teflon tape rope, wrap it real good and assemble. Go back to installing sink faucet. Congratulate myself for not trying both at once but at least the repair video helped save the day and the original request for the sink leak has been fixed and you can go home. To be continued... Is "WATTS" still around (lol)

It's faster and less involved than having to sweat an extension to a very short stub for a replacement valve.
