Replacing the hot water sink valve in the master bath
The hot water faucet valve leaks through the shaft of the valve when turned about 45 degrees. |
Will remove the old valve assembly (Price Pfister brand) and replace it. |
Removed the old assembly. The valve seat area looks ok. |
Local hardware store had a replacement valve. |
There's a plastic washer that goes under the valve. Will put some Teflon tape on the threads to seal also. |
Applied the tape and put the plastic seal on. |
The cold water supply like has corrosion on the metal sheathing. Will have to replace the line soon... (project for another day) |
Finished replacing the valve. |
There's quite a bit of hard water deposits around the base of the fixture. |
After cleaning the hard water deposits... All done. The new valve works well. |
