Old Laundry Faucet Replacement Question Please

[waltermalcom]

Is replacing this old faucet as easy as loosening the big nuts and adding a new faucet and reattaching the nuts? Any insight, help and guidance is greatly appreciated, Thank you!

I put one very similar to that about a year ago for a neighbor, he bought it so Ido t temperate brand I think I may have had to cut the copper back but don't remember

I can't remember either, maybe someone will know? Merry Christmas...

Search clamp on style laundry style faucet you may have to adjust the copper in some way

Wondering if someone has reused the same compression nuts - just switching out old faucet for new, no pipe cutting?

In my experience those unions tend to be manufacturer specific. It is possible that they would work with other brands but I would plan on them needing replaced.

My experience you will probably have to change things to the new. Take your old faucet out and see if the new nuts
screw on easily and all the way down on the old faucet. If not then it has to be changed

I think all I had to to was shorten the copper but you have that tee for an outside spirit I'm guessing you could move that tee to above the 90°
