  • This video shows how to quickly replace or repair the handle on a pvc ballvalve if the handle cracks or breaks off. This is much easier than cutting the pvc apart and cementing news parts in place, so take a few minutes and do it the easy way!

    Exactly what I was hoping to find on CZcams! Thank you! Doing a filter cleaning and noticed the ball valve gasket is broken, water was starting to leak out. So happy to see that I probably don’t have to cut PVC, thank you!

    If even been considering fiberglassing the handle to fix the crack and make it stronger...... easier to just replace every couple years.

    Great tips. I have the same issue and was going to replace the entire ball valve. It is much easier to replace the handle. That said, I am having troubled finding the same ball valve. Can you tell me what you used as the style is identical. All the ball valves I am seeing on line have the screw to attached the handle. Mine is like in the video where the handle cap fits into the two slots with no screw. Thanks in advance.

    • @gregjonesonline

    thats nice in theory. But my handle sheared completely off. The white "wings" part of the shaft just tore right off. This is the 2nd time this has happened. These ball valves get stuck over time, harder and harder to turn. I don't know if its chlorine or what but something inside these red ball valves is just not compatible long-term with pool water.
