Imagine such a situation. Something's wrong with the tap of cold water, and an urgent need to change the new one. It is not possible to disconnect the riser through utilities. This often happens on weekends. What to do in such a situation? You can certainly wait, and you can do everything with their own hands. Most importantly - sensibly assess the risks and prospects of such an event, as well as be ready to take responsibility, if "everything goes wrong."

Finished with rhetoric warning that for the repair of plumbing, the more "extreme" should only be taken in the presence of skilled hands, understanding the question, and in the presence of at least minimal skills in this area, move on to a description of the replacement technology for ball valve pressure.

Important: It is necessary to prepare the workplace. Put a bucket under the pipe, get hold of a few rags and clean around all the unnecessary and bothersome.

I want more interesting things about the sanitary business? How about in order to understand why in the US no toilet brushes for cleaning and what is dictated.
