What happens here

Measure the distance between the two installed PEX A adapters (accounting for the ball valve and any short PEX segments needed). Using PEX pipe cutters, cut two short segments of 1/2-inch PEX A pipe to the appropriate length. These segments will connect the ball valve to the top and bottom adapters. The video shows the action of cutting a single PEX pipe segment.

Goal: Prepare PEX pipe sections for the ball valve assembly

Tools and materials

  • 1/2-inch PEX A pipe — The sections connecting to the ball valve
