            Is it possible to replace the seal to fix water leak at handle?
            ByMay 29, 2023
            1 Answer | 
            Answer This Question

            Hello, if there is a leak at the stem of this type of valve, then the whole valve will need to be replaced as the handle is not designed for disassembly. For full project scope, we recommend checking local plumbing codes to ensure a long-lasting project.

                    This product comparing price-quality ratio is very good. After 12 years of having put my first 3 valves, I just replaced them with the same ones because as I said very good product. I recommend it 100%

                    Got 2 of these to make a custom pool filter distribution rig from Intex skimmer to Intex pump and from 1-1/4in vacuum hose to pump. It works great but it was a PITA to figure out the connection between INTEX threads, the pool hoses and the PVC lines. Please make adapters. This stuff can't be difficult to make and it will sell. Had to use rubber hoses to connect.

                    just installed these (2”)
                    So far i have no complaints. Easy to instal and i can some what agree the handle is very tight and a little hard to turn but if you have some strength its manageable. As far as dependability this is day 1 so if u have any issues i will come back. I used this to put together a more permanent working system for my above ground pool.

                      I installed two of these in my yard for outdoor showers. They started leaking from the middle circle of the valve handle within a month and both are difficult to turn. Now I have to cut my showers apart to remove them both and replace...NOT with this brand!

                        As almost everybody else has mentioned, these valves leak. I bought 3 (image attached) and one of them immediately started leaking. It only leaks when it's open and the pressure in that section of the pipe is 60 PSI. Kudos to the manufacturer for responding to all the leak complaints and offering customers to call them for warranty replacements. Unfortunately this doesn't help because nobody is really interested in getting their $3 back. They want to solve the other problems now associated with this leak: You have to cut the valve out of the pipe. Spend time repairing it and possibly getting more sections of your existing piping and other parts just to get this valve replaced. And what if the replacement valve leaks as well? You're back at the beginning and have wasted all that time. I have 2 questions for the manufacturer: - Can these valves be repaired "in situ"? - i.e. without removing them from the pipe can I repair it? I don't mind buying another valve from Home Depot and using the parts from it to do the repair. I just don't want to have to cut that valve out of the pipe and replace it with another that could also be faulty. - How do you test your valves? Based on the number of comments on this product leaking seems to be a serious problem with them. What is your quality control to ensure that the shipped valves don't leak through the handle?
