How to Replace a Water Shut Off Valve Under Sink | Water Leaking from Supply Valve

[@Tony-q4f3t]

Instead of cutting the ferrule or copper pipe , use a Ferrule Puller to remove the compression ring .

[@Housebarons]

Nice tip - thx!

[@Sarbet888]

Lowes canceled the installation because they did not know how to pull it up like you did. I was going to call a plumber before I found your channel; now, I will install my dishwasher myself. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Housebarons]

Good to hear! Way to go!

[@MAC-gx3ji]

Why not remove the ferrule from the upper tube like you did with the lower tube ?

*"OLDER houses"* 😂😂😂 I'm laughing in my 200 year old house. I wish I was joking. The stuff in my house doesn't exist anymore 😂

[@Housebarons]

Hey Trad…, Wow! 200 yrs - that’s awesome. I feel your pain too!😃

[@TradBarbie]

@@Housebarons it's STILL leaking and I've tried 80 things 😂

[@brunoskorniak9722]

Thanks for the post. I replaced my kitchen faucet and reused the copper feeder lines which are failing at the connections. Replacing them with good old braided steel line. Keep the garbage vinyl and pex. However before i can replace the cold side feeder line i need to put in a new shut off bc it also feeds the water to the ice maker which is connected to the copper via a saddle valve. You CANNOT put a saddle valve on braided or vinyl. Thats why i need a compression shut off with a 3/8 faucet line and a 1/4 ice maker line in one shut off. Make sense?🤣😂😂. Anyway i just needed to see what to do for the compression shut off. Thanks

Question - what size copper pipe is that? I have been changing my valves and I am getting the same exact size valves you have and they are all fitting loose. I got sharkbites and those do work but why they be lose? Same size valve as the one I removed and the ones removed definitely were not loose. I cannot figure it out.

[@Housebarons]

That is 1/2 inch copper pipe. The shark bites are made to spin around the pipe but made to resist pulling off - they do not slide off easily. When you turn the water on, go slow and look for leaks. Leaks mean -do it over. Thx for watching!

[@gotaigo]

They have tools for compression rings removal

[@ssjkuroki7776]

what happens if the pipe is broken? Mine broke just minutes ago and it doesn’t stick out like in the video. Do you have any tips on what I can do or do I have to replace the pipe by calling a plumber?

[@Housebarons]

You can diy a pipe replacement… depends on how handy you are. KZbin videos are very helpful. But If that is not in your wheel house - then handyman or plumber. Thx for watching!

[@goofyfuhh]

Doesn’t it have a rubber washer inside u could have replaced ?

[@Housebarons]

Hmmm. Good point! Maybe next time.

[@mrwack]

Why not just use pex and braided 3/8?

[@woodstream6137]

Get something called an olive puller - it uses the retaining nut to pull that brass ferule off

[@TnT-bl2yo]

Im having this exact problem now and i just discovered that its my valve and seals…thank you for your clean informative video. I have to fix mine today after work

[@Housebarons]

Glad it helped

[@Idreamoutdoors]

Before you go to the last resort of replacing the valve you can try tightening the packing nut first. Quite honestly this might have solved this persons problem.

[@Anna-ww4pv]

When should copper pipes be completely replaced?

[@Housebarons]

Copper lasts a very long time. They are also simple to repair. The only time we’ve replaced all copper pipes was when we purchased a house from a bank that didn’t winterize it. So the water in the pipes froze & split the pipes in multiple locations. We were chasing endless leaks inside walls. It might be worth replacing a small section under sink if you had a leak but throughout a house ? I’d keep them. Just my 2 cents. Thx for watching!

[@Tacompton425]

I dislike those crap shutoff supply valves and have replaced all of mine with 1/4 turn quality valvles.

[@TherealBigJohnSt33l]

I’m about to do mine. Any pointers?

[@symcardnel1741]

agreed... was suppressed to see the one he installed was also a 1/4 turn but with the old goofy style 'knob'

[@murdamylow]

I turned off the water supply to the house and the hot water is still leaking. Do I have to drain my water heater to replace the hot water shut off valve under the sink?

[@Housebarons]

If you have sinks or pipes above the valve - then that might still be draining due to gravity, If your water heater is upstairs , I still don’t think it would siphon. Maybe let the valve drain into a bucket or pan, see if it eventually stops after the pipes empty… Hopefully that is what’s going on.

[@murdamylow]

Thanks! I have a one story house. I’ll try draining the water into buckets.

[@dianacarter3212]

Just saw a video where they have a tool to take that thing off.

[@johnsmith6368]

Nobodies gonna bring up that he left that old compression nut on the pipe below the new valve?

[@ad-hj6ig]

:)

[@Denver.Don.303]

I think it looks better plus it sounds like he’s the homeowner so if he doesn’t care it doesn’t matter

[@brunoskorniak9722]

That urks me too!!!😂😂🤣

[@coteauapmts1070]

quarter turn angle stops work better.

[@carmenlombardi7955]

Just change the stem and cap repair kit.

[@dmifranco]

Thank you

[@ramoncapiral6427]

why take out just put a new gasket

[@ronda7340]

Use a compression sleeve puller. Alot easier lol...

Thx for the tip!!
