Yes I twisted too hard and broke the tubes. I have a new valve and trim kit. The house was re piped about 3 years back using PEX with the crimp ringings. The old valve has copper top and bottom and PEX on the inlets. I want to use Sharkbites to make the repair. Look at the pictures and tell me. Do I cut the PEX close to the rings, will there be enough pipe left? Or should I Cut the PEX on the drop from the attic before it makes any turns and rebuild from there to the valve? Can I put the Sharkbites on the pipes and then thread them into the valve. Any suggestion on how or what order would be great. (Last picture in new valve.)
Thanks,
Ken
