Texas pool owner here. I have been reaching out to all contractors nearby but all have 4-6 weeks waiting period. Not a handyman man but finally made up my mind to fix the plumbing on my own.
The ball valve on the right burst during the storm and needs to be replaced. Now I have all the parts but not sure how to proceed. The ball valve is very close to a 90 elbow which is connected to a Jandy actuator. If I cut the ball valve from its top, how should I connect the new ball valve to the elbow? Should I remove the PVC inside the existing elbow?
Since the elbow is glued with the actuator, I definitely want to keep the existing elbow and reduce the workload. Thank you for any advice.
