Another front valve block question....

Can I just reuse the old voss collet connectors with my new front valve block? Just unscrew off the old valve and reattach to the new unit? Will there be any foreseeable problems if I do this? My new valve block came with new voss connectors, and I thought it would be easier to just unscrew them off and use the old ones with the lines already attached. I plan on installing first thing in the am so any advice would be much appreciated Smile

No, is the answer Thumbs Up

The old connectors will not reach far enough into the valve block, to start on the threads.
Much easier to just break off the old collets, slide the union off the pipe, and push fit into the new block Thumbs Up

Do I need to cut anything or is it pretty straight forward to do?
