Its was behind the Master bath … Im thinking it was a cut-off for the bath.

I would recommend that the buyer ask the homeowner what its purpose was.

The main water shut off and water heater is often hidden in a bedroom closet.

Given the size it looks like a second main. The folks manufacturing the home didn’t know there would also be one outside.

That is why I asked if You turned it off,it looks like the typical main shut off I see on manufactured homes all the time…there is usually one inside somewhere and not always where You would think to look for it…

and by the way a single handle cut off for a bathroom doesn’t make much sense, unless the bathroom only has hot or cold water, not both…

its fine. Carry on boss man.

I’m not a fan of turning on/off any valves but definitely not CPVC. That crap will break if you look at it wrong.

Two times over the last +/- 10 years we’ve broken a supply low-point drain hanging just out of sight, buried in the insulation in a crawl space. It’s just crazy how brittle that crap is. When things go wrong in this biz we of course try to keep it from happening again but I don’t know how to stop moving in crawl spaces without my back touching the insulation!

When in doubt, recommend vender’s disclosure.

Main water shut-off or more convenient one than crawling under the manufactured home. I have see the exact same one again this month.

Only call it a mobilehome if its older then 1976 , after 1976 its a Manufactured home. Know the difference, as agents and Buyers could get real angry if they see that on a report.
