What happens here

Finally, turn the main water supply back on. Once the water is restored, test the newly installed valve and connections for any leaks. Open the valve and check the connected fixture (e.g., sink faucet) to ensure water flows properly. Inspect all connections for drips or moisture. If no leaks are present and water flows, the installation is complete.

Goal: Verify the new valve installation is leak-free and functional.
