Makes DIY Jobs Quick & Easy

Used 1/2 inch SharkBite fittings and valves to tap off a 3/4 inch heating zone and feed a toe kick heater. Other than a couple of venturi T's that had to be soldered into the zone and a short piece of 1/2 inch copper on each to allow connection of the SharkBite fittings, everything was done with SharkBite fittings. When finished I had one valve that wouldn't close. Took it apart and discovered that I had caught the end of the plastic insert inside the valve when pushing in the copper pipe, jambing the plastic into the valve section. Removed the damaged piece, checked with SharkBite to see if a replacement piece was available and learned that it is for use with PEX and not needed if using copper. So, when using SharkBite fittings with copper, just be careful not to catch the plastic insert with the end of the copper pipe when pushing together. If you're using a SharkBite valve, leave it in the closed position when assembling.

Valve body leak

I've used sharkbites on many occasions at least 100 times. Today I had a shock since I thought they were more than perfect. Today I had to remove a 1/2 ball valve w/ bleeder which was leaking on the valve body. When you closed it would leak right threw the body like it's ruptured a gasket. Fortunately no water damage, it was a winterization valve for an exterior faucet. Not everything is perfect.

These Sharkbite push fit valves are awesome.

I have used quite a few Sharkbite push fit valves and fittings. They have all worked nicely without any leaks. I definitely will buy again.

Perfect for what was needed.

As always with Shark Bite parts, they go together (and come apart, when adjustments are needed) quickly an easily. The added bleed valve was what was needed to clear air from the lines easily.

Great Product. Great price. Fast Delivery

I added these valves to existing plumbing, which is always a challenge. I made the cuts to the copper tubing, inserted the tubing into the valves, and I was all set. NO leaks. It took longer to cut the tubing than to install. It was nice to keep the MAP gas in its container. The *delivered* price was the best I could find online or in a store, and the delivery was fast.

Works like a charm!

Follow the instructions and it's the perfect product. Make sure to cut your PEX 90 degrees, de-burr and insert both cut ends of the PEX FULLY into the Sharkbite valve. I suggest using their de-burring and depth metering tool(orange). I went ahead a bought it and used it. Was not going to take a chance of it leaking and flooding my basement. I had 2 Sharkbite valves installed in less than 10 minutes. No leaks. Worked perfectly. Great product!

Q: I put one of these in on a line in my basement that goes to my sprinkler system and when I turn the valve off I get a drip. Is there an easy way to fix it without replacing the valve?

It depends where the leak is. If it is leaking from either sharkbite end, it is possible the copper is not fully seated in sharkbite, if that is the case, and your copper has some play, try to insert the copper further into valve. If the copper was cut too short you may need to lengthen by adding a coupling, thereby lengthening pipe to fully insert into valve. If it leaking around the ball valve, or if re-seating copper doesn't work, it may need replaced. *To your success,Kurt***.*****

The valve itself shouldn't leak. Have you checked that the lines in and out were installed according to instructions? Peter Nagourney

I had a drip as well when I connected to water heater. The way I fixed it was by extending the pex tubbing just enough to make it a tight fit from the valve to the water heater. That worked for me. It seemed like the tubbing was to short or short enough to cause the leak. hopefully it works for you. If your using copper try to make the pipe slightly longer. or long enough to make it a tighter fit. Good luck!

When this valve is turned off and you open the small drain cap to allow the water to drain back or out to the low point in the system a small amount of water is expected. If the valve leaks when yu turn it off without opening the cap then it is defective or debris be inside the valve affecting it's integrity. I would turn it on and off while water is flowing 10 times if it still leaks it must be replaced. These valves have no serviceable parts other than the small drain cap. Sent from my iPhone

It should work. I love sharkbite fittings but I have used them with pex pipe and copper, but CPVC outside diameters should be the same.

- Another PexSupply Customer

Shark Bite Valves are designed to work with copper, pex, and cpvc pipe. I have used various sharkbite fittings on copper and pex in my house with great success, and although I have never personally used it on cpvc, it would be the first way I would attempt to connect cpvc pipe based on my previous experience.

Q: I put one of these in on a line in my basement that goes to my sprinkler system and when I open up to drain, I just get a drip. Is there a secret to getting a stead stream to flow out when draining it?

To get a steady stream, you would need to blow out the lines with compressed air.

Q: I have one of these for my splinker lines and I'm trying to drain the line. When you unscrew the drain screw the water just drips out very slowly. Is there something I should do to get a steady stream or is it just supposed to drip?

It will only drip unless you blow the line out with compressed air. Using compressed air would give you more of a steady stream.

Q: Not to sound like an idiot, but is the drain valve for blowing air through it or draining water. I'm looking at putting one just before a garden hose bib.

The drain value is used to drian the water between the the valve and the faucet. I used on the hot and cold water in my garage wash tub. During the winters I shutoff and drian, spring open and ready to go.

Q: Does the drain on this ball valve automatically remove air out of the line? Or do you have to open this fitting several turns? Thanks, John
