I wish I could  drool.gif  but it is too high... I think worst case I just buy both sizes...

By the way, I am thinking if the original piping is 3/4" and I am using 1/2" stop cork, or vice versa, will it be ok?

Hi there,

Not sure if you have found the answer..

Stop valve nowadays comes in various attractive design..definitely not like the red handle one u posted tongue.gif

As for the size...usually for bathroom main pipes are 3/4"...i would not recommend converting to 1/2" as it will reduced the water volume for other outlets..

the 3/4" pipes will then be reduced to 1/2" at the outlet (example: shower area)..which will create better water volume from the pipe downsizing..

As for maintenance...u will just need to remove the handle & the cartridge for replacement without hacking the wall provided ur contractor did not over plaster it.

Do let me know if you have other queries...would love to help biggrin.gif
