Prepare for New Valve Installation

What happens here

With the old valve completely removed and the pipe end clean, slide a new escutcheon plate back onto the pipe, positioning it against the wall. Clean any debris or residue from the pipe and surrounding area. The pipe is now perfectly prepared and ready for the installation of a brand new valve, which can be a push-to-connect or a threaded type, depending on your preference and the specific plumbing needs.

Goal: Get the pipe ready for a new valve
