Hello, yes, the arrow indicates the water flow direction. Thank you
This valve is designed as a stop and waste valve, meaning it shuts off the water supply and drains any remaining water in the line. If it's installed underground for your sprinkler system, you'll need a valve key to operate it. The valve key inserts into the top of the valve, which should be accessible above ground. Turning the key clockwise closes the valve and shuts off the water, while also opening the drain. Turning it counter-clockwise opens the valve and allows water to flow.
Yes, this can be used as a main shutoff valve for outdoor sprinkler systems. It automatically drains when turned off to prevent water buildup and potential damage.
Yes, this valve has threaded connections both into and out of the valve. It is described as having 1 in. female NPT (National Pipe Thread) connections. This means the valve has internal threads that accept male pipe threads.
This dripping issue isn't typical for a newly installed stop and waste valve. When the valve is in the off position, it should automatically drain any remaining water in the line on the non-pressure side, preventing drips. Since you haven't connected the sprinkler line yet, any dripping suggests a potential problem with the valve itself. Double-check the installation to ensure all connections are tight and that the valve is fully closed. If the dripping persists, it's best to contact Homewerks customer service at 1-877-319-3757 for warranty assistance.
Yes, this can be buried underground. It is designed for underground use and can function as the main shutoff for your sprinkler system. It automatically drains when it is off to prevent water buildup and potential damage during freezing temperatures.
