I had a plumber install a hot and cold ball shutoff under my bathtub. He said he liked ball shut offs because they never leak. As soon as we turned on the main valve, one of the new ball valves leaked.
He replaced it, and it has held for about 8 years.
This week I had to replace a tub fixture. When I turned off one of the ball valves, it squirted water out the side, from the stem on the handle, but held when I shut it all the way off.
if it fails when I turn it back on, is there something better I can use, that won’t leak?
