Hey All,
This is probably the stupidest question ever posted, but I just don't know the answer. I am installing a lav sink for a laundry room and the sink itself is rather deep, and barely clears the supply line connections which are pointing straight up. It is a sweat on full turn valve.
So I figure I have a few choices, probably some of which are better than others. Should I:
- remove and reinstall the same valves and point them to 3/9 o'clock, or both to 6? I've never seen valves point down instead of up so not sure how appropriate it is
- remove and replace with straight through valves with the shutoff on the side
- replace with sharkbite valves so I can wing them around where I need em
The new faucet has flexible supply lines so routing/installing shouldn't be a huge deal w/ any orientation. Thank you for any advice!
