If they are you will want to replace the whole valve and the hose. If you have others in the house I would consider getting rid of the others as well. Sometimes they come off by twisting and other times you have to remove the pieces after going Rambo on them... <img src="http://411plumb.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Accor-Flow-Tite.jpg" alt="Accor Flow Tite Valve and Supply" /> Hi Chuck,

The hose is permanently attached to the shut off with a swedge fitting. How do I get this to release from the pipe so I can replace it?
