I am going to drop in a new high efficiency toilet, because the existing one is big, old and leaky. Running into an issue with the rigid supply line -- I don’t know what is the best way to handle replacing it. I want to install an angle stop and a braided line, without damaging the wall too much or coming up through the floor/tile.
Here’s what I’m looking at:
What I'm thinking:
1. I'm able to chip away a little bit of wall paneling, get the rigid fitting off the wall, and replace with a compression fitting. Although, I'm worried I won't have enough purchase on the stub coming from the wall for the compression fitting to work.
2. Cut the rigid line and stick a compression fitting onto that -- then figure out away to add an angle stop so I can use a braided supply line.
Thoughts? Advice?
Thanks!
