Hi,

Recently moved into a house and the valve on the washing machine tee does not close properly and is leaking.

I do not want to remove the whole tee section if possible, I just want to screw an extra section onto the end of the tee with a working valve - but I can't find the right part anywhere, does it even exist?

Here is a picture of the leaking tee valve, it's capped off at the moment.

Many thanks.

If you're not going to replace the valve, you might as well either leave it capped or just connect it to a washing machine.

Your trap might be leaking, if that's the case it wont prevent odours coming from your waste stack.
