I'm considering purchasing a production home that will be built with Pex-A. The builder appears to be using Accor shutoff valves, which I'd plan to replace fairly soon after moving in. But I could foresee an issue with the stub-outs being fairly short meaning simply cutting off the old valve may not be possibility. My research indicates that removing the Accor valve could leave scoring on the outside of the pipe even if I carefully cut off the valve rather than using the "twist and pull"...
