Attempting to replace an exterior hose bib gate valve with a Ball valve shut off, and add a threaded connector to easily replace if needed in the future.
Block/stucco exterior walls. I was not able to heat the pipe enough to remove it because of how close it is to the wall, afraid I might damage the hose bib and or the plastic pipe in the wall. (Need the hose bib not to leak if unable to remove)
The interior pipe is CPVC, so this copper attaches to it, but not sure how far in.
Any advice? I was using an old propane torch
