hi guys

can anyone look at the pic and tell me how do i unscrew this pipe from the mains. i tried with a simple wrench but clockwise/unclockwise motion only rotates the entire pipe...it doesnt look like its on a thread...

thanks!

It's connected to the stop.

If you need a new hose, replace the shutoff.

hi terry

thanks for the quick reply...so do you mean that if i need to put in another faucet line, i need to remove the whole shutoff valve + faucet line assembly?

is it not possible to just screw off the faucet line?

thanks

It's a crimped on fitting.

Good luck trying to remove that little bugger.

The back side of the shutoff is a push-on.
Your have to either destroy the shutoff to replace, or cut the pipe behind it.

And luckily you have a nice length of pipe to work with as well. If it was flush with the wall then it would be sharkbite time. lol Hey it's a DIY forum, rightÂ¿
