In this video I'm going to show you how easy it is to replace a washing machine valve.
The only equipment you will need to complete this task is 2x Adjustable spanners and PTFE Tape.
This valve costs around £2 to buy from any hardware store.

Extremely helpful, thank you. My pipe/valve was fixed to the wall so I had to do it in-situ but your demo explained it very well and it turned out easier than I ever imagined. Thanks again for putting this on.

thanks for the video i noticed that the plastic taps have screws in them are they all meant to have screws mine does not have any and i cannot isolate water going into machine. i push the plastic tap onto connector but i cannot switch of the water. thanks

Yes all the ones I have worked with have the screws. You can get a new isolator and try using the new tap on the old isolator 👍🏻

Stupid question but I'm changing my washing machine and the valve is stuck and I can't tell if I turn clockwise or anti clockwise to turn it off? I don't want to break it. Any help?

How do you remove old olive without damaging pipe please??

@atifr4162 3 жыл бұрын

An unadvisable way is to cut the olive with a hacksaw or another suitable saw. There isn’t another alternative other than cutting the pipe above the olive

if you use an olive pillar that is designed to remove olives and protect the pipe

wtf is the Olive?

@expedition320 2 жыл бұрын

Very useful video, at the loosening the old valve stage I get stuck as I can't loosen the bolt on the old valve as it's totally stuck and not budging. Is the only option to cut the pipe off? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hdV0hJN3kripiXU.html

It is probably easier just to cut it off yes
