Discuss Changing/fixing a bunch of seized imperial and metric valves in the UK Plumbing Forum | Plumbing Advice area at PlumbersForums.net

Have successfully change the first one. Threads from the previous valve were compatible with the new valve so I just swapped it out, and used the olives that were already on the pipe. Hopefully that's ok. I added lots of Fernox jointing compound to protect the threads. Seems completely watertight so far!

Now I can isolate the tanks in the loft which will be very useful when changing the others. Thanks again!
