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.
Do I need to support a valve this size?
Yes. Support the adjoining pipe so the valve weight and operating torque are not carried by the threaded joints alone.
