русскийStraight Shutoff Valve
This is a common stop valve found on copper and CPVC pipes that is typically made of chrome-plated brass for durability. It is a very affordable option that can be purchased at most hardware stores.
Angled Shutoff Valve
An angle stop valve is a type of shutoff that is commonly used with copper or CPVC pipe. These are often found under the sink, where they connect to the water supply pipe that comes up from below the floor or cabinet.
Unlike the straight stop valve, an angle stop valve has a handle that is perpendicular to the outlet port. This makes it easy to access and replace.
Three-Way Stop Valves
A three-way stop valve is a type of shutoff found under the kitchen sink that has an inlet and two outlet ports. These are often used to connect to the hot tap on a faucet and also the dishwasher.
These valves are generally made of chrome-plated brass for durability, and they tend to cost slightly more than straight stop valves. However, they are very reliable and can be installed by anyone with a few basic tools. They also come in several different configurations, including cross-shaped and with outlets facing in opposite directions.
