I just tried to fix an old washing machine fill valve (gate valve) with leak at the packing - didn't work out.
Two questions - one, I bought a hose bib from Lowe's (American Valve #14087). The angle of the hose connection is closer to 45 degree, more straight than downward like the old one. Is this ok to use for laundry hookup?
Two, what is a recommended replacement brand, Nibco? I don't mind the extra expense, just want high quality ball valves. Thanks, I appreciate the help.
