Dual dump valve with Y / individual blade valve replacement?

[ChgoWinger]

What is typically easier? replacing the entire waste assemby
(both blades and y in single assembly) like the pic or each of the 2 waste valves with the 4 bolts independantly?

FAR easier to replace just the waste gates ... after all, that's why replacements are so readily available.

Assembly is slip fit/GLUED to drain pipe so you would have to CUT pipe into, shorten the pipe so you could use a coupling on each side with short piece of pipe to GLUE new assembly in place

Replace the valves via bolts in flanges.

I would unbolt the pipe side of flanges on each dump valve and remove as a WHOLE (valves and drain outlet still bolted together)
Then remove other bolts/valves...install new valves onto drain outlet and install as a UNIT--then bolt it up to drain pipes on each side

I wasn't sure. It looks like they could be.

Thanks

I don't think it would matter as long as you make sure you keep your O rings in place when you slide the valves in.

I've never done both at the same time.

I think I'd go for one valve at a time.
