BEST METHOD TO REPLACE FLOWTITE VALVE ON CPVC PIPE
What happens here
Rotate the valve body and make a second 45-degree cut on the opposite side from the first cut. Similar to the first cut, continue sawing until you expose the internal clips. This additional cut will further weaken the valve's structure and allow for easier removal of its components without stressing the underlying CPVC pipe.
Goal: Spin the valve and make another 45-degree angle cut on the opposite side to further release the internal components.
