Can Gate Valves Just Be Unbolted From The Assembly Instead Of Cutting The Pipe  

Question:

I am looking at the Valterra Waste Valve Body w/ Flexible Cable for RV Black Water Tank - 72 Item # TC372 to replace a manual valve. Does the gate assembly simply unbolt from the pipe flanges so I can slide this in place without cutting and gluing new pipe? I want to be able to remove the 4 bolts holding the 1/2 thick section and swap in this new valve assembly. Thanks

Expert Reply:

Yes, the gate valves are just bolted into the assembly so you could easily unbolt the old valve and swap in Valterra Waste Valve Body w/ Flexible Cable for RV Black Water Tank - 72" # TC372 to avoid cutting the pipe and gluing in new fittings. You'll just want to make sure you really clean out the pipes and use gloves while completing the installation.
