The above pix shows a similar water supply valve under my kitchen
sink, which driips near the crimp.
I would like to replace the hose and crimp: is there a way to do this?
Do I have to replace the entire valve assembly with hose by cutting
the supply pipe closer to the wall?
Can it be recrimped?


Assistance requested and appreciated. tia


What's coming out of the wall, *PVC?


Good question. I've never seen a push/pull valve
like that on a toilet before.

Before doing anything, exactly where is it leaking?
Since she's concerned with the hose/crimp, sounds
like it's leaking there. If so, first thing I'd try is to get
a stainless steel hose clamp, take off the old clamp,
and replace it. That might be all that is needed.

The same valve is on the kitchen water inlets, all bathroom sinks, and
toile, throughout the house.
It is leaking at the end of the crimp.
The old clamp will not come off!
Sumter County, FL: almost all homes have this same arrangement.
