Looks like a job well done.
Oh, those are garbage... they’ll leak in a couple weeks.
I don't care for the 1/4 turn because you can't tighten the packing nut behind the handle. And after a few years of not being used, you turn a 1/4 turn valve and 70% leak and need replacement. Plus on the multi turn you can unscrew the guts and screw in new ones.
The valves around here have an adjustment? Not using Wolverine brass are you? JUNK!
Quit trying to make him second guess himself and set himself up for failure, Rick!
You were right no packing nut, checked this morning?
Why would you doubt me? You should know better by now!
You did well for a computer nerd!
Multi turn valves are good valves, they tend to not get activated because the are mostly out of sight and out of mind. Don’t get me wrong, I prefer 1/4 turn ball valves myself because of the 1/4 turn simplicity but when it comes to a valve of any kind, I try to shut them off and turn them on a couple times per year.
Wtf @Hondasxs, no plastic into brass, no black iron pipe, no galvanized to brass, you’re my hero! I have to fix the above mentioned at least three times per week. It amazes me how people don’t think things out. Looks good!
Some use Teflon tape, I’d use pipe dope for the best results. 45-50 is a good range for pressure.
Also, good call on the regulator, they help with pressure surges.
