Frequently Asked Questions
Is this valve rated for hot water?
No. PVC is a cold-water material rated to 150 psi at 73°F. Pressure falls as temperature rises, so keep it on cold or ambient lines.
What does FIP x FIP mean?
Both ends are female NPT (female iron pipe) threads, so it installs onto male-threaded pipe or fittings using thread sealant.
Can I use it with chemicals?
PVC with EPDM seals handles many dilute acids, bases, and salt solutions. Check the chemical compatibility chart linked above before use.
Is thread sealant needed?
Yes. Apply PTFE tape or pipe dope to the male threads; do not over-tighten plastic threads.
