What happens here

After the main valve body is cut, slide back any remaining inner piece or collar that might still be on the pipe. Locate and remove the O-ring from the pipe. If there are any stubborn plastic pieces or remnants of the valve's internal structure still attached, use a pair of snips (like diagonal cutters) to carefully cut them off, ensuring the pipe's end is completely clear for the new fitting.

Goal: Completely remove all components of the old valve from the pipe.

Tools and materials

  • Snips N/A — Cutting off any remaining plastic collars or rings
  • O-ring N/A — The rubber seal from the valve, to be removed

What they say

Hide

slide this on up in here. You hear it start cracking? Off. We'll then take this piece right here, slide it back. You can remove the O-ring. You want to just grab a little pair of snips. Boom.
