Talking to someone who is interested in fixing things is very nice, so I’ve been talking with Scott about the weird plumbing and things in the house.

He saw my post about the shower and was asking some questions and giving ideas and omg it’s just really, really nice to be heard.

Anyway. Since I’ve been telling you all about the weirdness, too:

So here are the shut offs for the shower, way overhead where my short ass can’t reach without a step stool which seems like a bad idea in an emergency, but whatever...

So they are accessible-ish. AFAIK it doesn’t matter which way it’s turned (they can only go one way but there’s a little barrier so you can tell which way that is. I couldn’t see it before) because it’s just a little ball with a tunnel and it’s either tunnel lines up with pipe so water can get through, or ball covers pipe and water can’t get through.

I can’t turn them, though. I don’t know if they’re stuck or if it’s my weakness and messed up shoulder. I am very weak in the hands anymore. No grip, lots of pain.

I do have a plumber’s wrench thing that I can probably use to turn them. Haven’t tried, yet.

Also yes, those pipes are crooked AF.

The previous homeowners did it. I’m guessing the extensions over the ceiling there are for the toilet and sink.

The leak is probably in the.... I keep forgetting what this is called. It’s probably in this thing here which I could likely disassemble and fix or replace no problem, I just don’t want to. Nobody uses this shower.

Really, the entire basement needs torn out and redone professionally.

I’ve had to fix EVERY. SINGLE. POWER OUTLET. because they’re ALL mounted wrong.

Anyway.

You know how I’ve said that I’m not stupid but I’m slow; I’ll get there eventually?

I finally had the smart idea to go outside and measure the distance from the window to the spigot.

14 inches.

Then I came inside and measured from the window again and the spigot is, I shit you not....

right there.

Right where those walls meet. That corner is 13.5 inches from the window.

Which begs the question: Where the fuck is the pipe, then, if there is wall framing there???

Also this means there’s a void behind there. The foundation is a little past the spigot, maybe another 10 inches, and the bathroom isn’t that deep. There’s a good...

guestimating...

1ft by.... maybe 4ft area that’s covered. For some reason.

So I’m wondering if I cut like....

here? if I’d be able to reach in and access the shut off valve (and then install a little access door cubby thing). Or maybe cut all the way out and install a people-size door.

Or is it on the other wall?

Like, does the framing for.....

Is the pipe RIGHT THERE and the framing is installed wrong and the drywall is just floating in the corner???? Or is it the other way so I’d be better off cutting into the window-wall?

Which way am I going to be blocked by boards?

Are BOTH sides floating?????

I wouldn’t put it past him. You should see how poorly he drywalled and framed the stairs.

What the fuck, Rolly. Why.

It would have been fixed by now if That Guy were willing to pay for the repairs or if I were able to. This has been driving me crazy for 16 years.

Exploring the Different Types of Ball Valves and Their Applications

Ball valves are mechanical devices used to regulate the flow of fluids within a system by means of a spherical disc or "ball" contained within the valve body. The ball has a hole or port through its center, allowing fluid to pass through when aligned with the flow path and stopping the flow when rotated perpendicular to it. This simple yet effective design makes ball valves versatile and widely used in various industries for controlling the movement of liquids or gases.

The operation of ball valves is typically controlled by a lever, handle, or actuator, which rotates the ball within the valve body to open, close, or regulate the flow. This rotational motion offers quick and reliable shutoff, making ball valves suitable for applications where tight shut-off is required to prevent leakage or to control the flow rate precisely.

Ball valves are fundamental components in fluid control systems, offering efficient shut-off capabilities and reliable performance across a wide range of applications in industries such as oil and gas, petrochemical, water treatment, power generation, and more. Their simple yet effective design, coupled with their versatility and durability, makes them indispensable in modern engineering and industrial processes.

Types of Ball Valves There are several types of ball valves, each designed to meet specific requirements and operating conditions. Here are some common types:

Floating Ball Valves: Floating ball valves are a type of ball valve where the ball is not fixed in place but instead floats between the valve seats. Here's a more detailed explanation:

Description: Floating ball valves consist of a spherical ball with a hole through its center, housed within a valve body. The ball is held in position by the valve seats, which are typically made of soft materials like PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) or elastomers. When the valve is in the closed position, the pressure of the fluid forces the ball against the downstream seat, creating a seal and preventing flow through the valve. In the open position, the ball rotates to align the hole with the flow path, allowing fluid to pass through.

Operation: The operation of floating ball valves is relatively simple. When the valve handle or actuator is turned to the closed position, the ball is pushed by the fluid pressure against the downstream seat, creating a seal and stopping the flow of fluid. Conversely, when the valve is opened, the ball rotates within the valve body to align the hole with the flow path, allowing fluid to pass through.

Advantages:

Simple design: Floating ball valves have a straightforward design, making them easy to manufacture, install, and maintain. Cost-effective: Compared to other types of ball valves, floating ball valves are often more affordable, making them a popular choice for general industrial applications. Suitable for low to moderate pressure applications: Floating ball valves perform well in applications where the pressure requirements are not extremely high.

Disadvantages:

Less effective sealing at high pressures: Floating ball valves may experience reduced sealing effectiveness at higher pressures compared to other types of ball valves like trunnion-mounted ball valves. Limited to smaller sizes: Floating ball valves are typically used in smaller sizes and may not be suitable for larger pipe diameters or higher flow rates.

Trunnion Ball Valves: Trunnion ball valves are a type of ball valve designed to handle high-pressure and high-flow applications. Here's a detailed overview of trunnion ball valves:

Description: Trunnion ball valves feature a fixed ball supported by trunnion bearings or pins at the top and bottom of the ball. Unlike floating ball valves, where the ball is free to move within the valve body, the trunnion-mounted ball remains stationary and is supported by the trunnion mechanism. This design provides additional support and stability, allowing the valve to handle higher pressures and larger pipe sizes with greater reliability.

Operation: Trunnion ball valves operate similarly to other types of ball valves. When the valve is in the closed position, the ball is pressed against the downstream seat by the fluid pressure, creating a tight seal and preventing flow through the valve. To open the valve, the ball rotates within the valve body to align the hole with the flow path, allowing fluid to pass through.

Advantages:

Excellent sealing performance: The trunnion-mounted ball design ensures superior sealing performance, even under high-pressure conditions, compared to floating ball valves. Suitable for high-pressure and high-flow applications: Trunnion ball valves are well-suited for applications where the operating pressures and flow rates are substantial. Reduced operating torque: The trunnion-mounted ball design reduces the operating torque required to operate the valve, making it easier to open and close, particularly in larger sizes.

Disadvantages:

Higher initial cost: Trunnion ball valves typically have a higher initial cost compared to floating ball valves due to their more complex design and construction. Limited flexibility: Trunnion ball valves may not be as versatile as floating ball valves and may not be suitable for low-pressure or smaller-sized applications.

Top-Entry Ball Valves: Top-entry ball valves are a specific type of ball valve designed with accessibility and maintenance in mind. Here's a comprehensive overview:

Description: Top-entry ball valves feature a design where the valve body can be disassembled from the top, allowing easy access to internal components such as the ball, seats, and stem. This design enables maintenance and repair work to be carried out without removing the valve from the pipeline, making it convenient and cost-effective.

Operation: The operation of top-entry ball valves is similar to other types of ball valves. The ball within the valve body rotates to control the flow of fluid, with the valve opening and closing by aligning or misaligning the hole in the ball with the flow path. However, the unique feature of top-entry ball valves lies in their ability to be disassembled from the top for maintenance purposes.

Advantages:

Simplified maintenance: Top-entry ball valves allow easy access to internal components without the need to remove the valve from the pipeline, reducing downtime and maintenance costs. Reduced risk of leakage: The top-entry design minimizes the risk of damage to the valve body or sealing components during maintenance, ensuring reliable performance and preventing leakage. Suitable for applications requiring frequent inspection or maintenance: Top-entry ball valves are ideal for industries and applications where regular maintenance or inspection is necessary, such as oil and gas production facilities, chemical plants, and water treatment plants.

Disadvantages:

Higher initial cost: Top-entry ball valves may have a higher initial cost compared to standard ball valves due to their specialized design and construction. Space requirements: The top-entry design may require additional space above the valve for maintenance access, which could be a consideration in tight or confined installations.

Fully Welded Ball Valves: Fully welded ball valves are a type of ball valve known for their robust construction and ability to handle high-pressure and high-temperature applications. Here's an overview:

Description: Fully welded ball valves feature a one-piece, welded body construction without any external leakage points, offering exceptional strength and durability. The valve body, end connections, and ball are welded together, providing a hermetic seal and eliminating potential leakage paths. These valves typically have a trunnion-mounted ball design for enhanced stability and sealing performance.

Operation: The operation of fully welded ball valves is similar to other types of ball valves. The ball within the valve body rotates to control the flow of fluid, with the valve opening and closing by aligning or misaligning the hole in the ball with the flow path. However, the fully welded construction ensures a secure seal, even under extreme pressure or temperature conditions.

Advantages:

Superior sealing performance: Fully welded ball valves offer excellent sealing performance, minimizing the risk of leakage, even under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions. Reduced risk of fugitive emissions: The welded construction eliminates potential leakage points, reducing the risk of fugitive emissions and ensuring environmental compliance. Long service life: The robust construction and durable materials used in fully welded ball valves contribute to their long service life and minimal maintenance requirements. Minimal maintenance: With fewer moving parts and no external leakage points, fully welded ball valves require minimal maintenance compared to other types of valves.

Disadvantages:

Limited access for maintenance or repair: The welded construction of fully welded ball valves can make it challenging to access internal components for maintenance or repair, potentially requiring specialized equipment or procedures. Higher initial cost: Fully welded ball valves may have a higher initial cost compared to other types of ball valves due to their specialized construction and materials.

Applications of Ball Valves in Different Industries
