What happens here

With the old ferrule successfully removed and the copper pipe undamaged, you can now easily slide on a new compression nut and a new angle stop valve. Ensure the new ferrule is properly seated. Hand-tighten the compression nut first, then use an adjustable wrench to tighten it approximately a half to a full turn past hand-tight, creating a secure, leak-free connection. After installation, turn the water supply back on slowly and check for any leaks at the connection point.

Goal: Attach a new valve to the prepared copper pipe

Tools and materials

  • Adjustable Wrench — Tightening the compression nut on the new valve
  • Copper Pipe — The pipe to which the new valve is attached
  • New Angle Stop Valve — The new valve to be installed
  • Paper Towel — Checking for leaks after installation

What they say

Hide

down in this little crack right here. Break it out. Boom. So that's able to pop right off. Now you're able to move your old ring. You're able to slap your new stop on there and tighten her down. That's one of the many ways this little hacksaw helps me out.
