I tried to replace a couple of taps but surprisingly they are screwed directly to the pex piping instead to the flexible tap connectors.
I'm no expert so I don't know if I can proceed as normal. I'm hesitant to just unscrew the nut because it looks like a permanent fitting glued to the pex and I don't want to break the seal without the needed materials.
I really appreciate any idea to move forward. Thank you so much!
Other details:
Those pipes does not have isolation valves. I don't have cement / special glue for pex just now.. Do I need some?
I'm changing the taps because they are in very bad shape with broken plastic nuts at the bottom, so each time I use them I stress the pex pipes because they need much more force than normal in order to stop the water.
English is not my first language. I hope I didn't say anything stupid, just in case, I'm really sorry .
