Hopefully my attached pic works. This is a townhome in Phoenix, Az and was built in the early to mid 80's.
My immediate concern is the angle on that main service line. I don't know if it's always been this way or if that cement slab is shifting differently than the house. My fear is one day I will come home to a gusher.
Either way, I'd like to rework this setup since the top faucet is leaking and I want to replace that bottom shut-off valve as well. Also, I imagine we will be adding an automated watering system in the future so if there's anything I can add now to accommodate that please share your thoughts.
By looking at my pictures, do any of you experts have concerns about the angle and if so, thoughts on how you would resolve it? Can you recommend types of replacement valves to use?
Thanks,
Larry
