ABSTRACT:
An insulative cover for undersink angle stop valve assembly comprises a first elongated piece having a pipe portion configured to cover a supply pipe and a valve portion configured to cover an angle stop valve. The valve portion has an oblong opening with opposite ends to facilitate connection of the supply line to the angle stop valve at either end, such that the valve portion may cover valves having various different lengths. A second piece has a line portion configured to cover the supply line and an oblong cover portion which is configured to cover the oblong opening in the first piece valve portion when the first and second pieces are positioned together. The second piece line portion is coupled to the second piece cover portion approximate one end of the cover portion and may be rotated to fit over the oblong opening such that the line portion is aligned with the point of connection of the line to the valve to provide complete insulation of an angle stop valve assembly. A third cover piece is configured to cover a valve handle and has radially extending projections to cover both a circular handle and a diamond-shaped handle. Alternatively, a closure depends downwardly from the cover portion of the second piece to cover the valve handle. The closure is hingedly attached to the second piece cover portion to be movable away from the handle to allow access to the handle to open and close the valve.
