Review on 🔧 BrassCraft G2CR19X C1 1/2 in. NOM Comp Inlet x 3/8 in. OD Compression Outlet Angle Valve, Chrome Plated Brass, 1/4 Turn by Robert Hines

Originally installed in our house, the check valves with screws didn't work or didn't work when really needed. We replaced them all with ball valves. Ball valves only take 1/4 turn to turn on or off, and a quick visual inspection will tell you if they're on or off. The brass components on this valve are of much better quality than the cheap valves fitted by our manufacturer. Perhaps the biggest installation challenge is removing the old compression ring from the 1/2 inch copper pipe coming out of the wall or floor. Cut off the old ring when you have enough pipe to work with. Alternatively, try using an old compression ring with an old valve nut (this should be the same size and thread as the new valve).
