Product Overview

System failures during the height of the summer heat can lead to rapid turf desiccation and costly plant loss; placing your reputation on the line. When a secondary valve fails to open or cannot be serviced quickly; homeowners and commercial clients expect immediate results.

This design feature drastically reduces labor costs during routine maintenance or debris removal. By choosing a valve with integrated flow control; you gain the ability to fine tune zone pressure and maximize efficiency across various emission devices. Using these professional grade components ensures your systems operate at peak performance while reducing the frequency of future call backs.

Installation Notes

For a secure installation; ensure the PVC pipe ends are cut square and deburred before applying primer and solvent cement to the slip connections. Ensure the arrow on the valve body aligns with the direction of water flow to prevent operation failure. All installations should follow local plumbing codes; and it is recommended to install a Master Valve and rain sensor upstream to protect the system. Use a standard valve box to provide adequate clearance for the jar top bonnet to be unscrewed during future service intervals.
