Removing a SharkBite fitting is a relatively simple process that can be completed in a few minutes with the right tools. SharkBite fittings are designed to be easily installed and removed, making them a great choice for DIY plumbing projects.
To remove a SharkBite fitting, you will need a pair of pliers and a flathead screwdriver. First, use the pliers to squeeze the release collar on the fitting. This will release the grip on the pipe, allowing you to pull the fitting off. If the fitting is particularly tight, you can use the flathead screwdriver to pry it off.
