Questions & Answers
How badly does this constrict flow when it’s fully open?
I have great water pressure so it doesn't compromise the sprinklers that I am using enough to make a difference. If you're running a large tower sprinkler and have water pressure below 50 psi, you might have an issue.
When fully opened the valve doesn’t construct flow at all.
The EZ-Flow™ 2-Way Control Valve can split 1 faucet into 2 high flow streams of water.
Position for OFF HELP
Turn knob 1/4 turn so that it is perpendicular to the shaft
It depends on how it was installed if the female end is up turn lever to the right if the male end is up swing the lever to the left.
at the 90 degree angle to the hose
Just turn the black valve piece perpendicular to the hose that is the off position. If at first it is a little hard to turn use a pliers or small wrench.
What are the measures of each end ?
The thread standard for garden hose connectors in the United States and its territories is known as "garden hose thread" (GHT), which is 3/4" diameter straight (non-tapered) thread with a pitch of 11.5 TPI (male part has an outer diameter of 1 1⁄16 inches (26.99 mm
standard garden hose diameter.. Sorry I don't know the inch measure
I am looking for a diverter for a washer hookup. I wanted to attach a garden hose to it, to hose off the porch. We live in an apartment. It is hard to keep disconnecting the washer hose, to use the garden hose. This way, the washer hose can stay on pipe, and I can just connect garden hose when needed. Is this what is needed?
You will need a Y connection first then place the cut off valve to the side opposite the washer hookup. Be sure all connections are very tight to avoid leaks.
Maybe a better way would be to get a 2 outlet 45 degree off center and leave both hooked up all the time. The shut off valve could also be used downline from the washer hose and turned on/of as needed leaving the washer hooked up all the time.
I would like to use this shut off valve to turn off water to my washing machine after use. I don't have a way to access the main cold and hot water valves that goes to the washing machine. So I am looking to connect the female end to the washing machine intake and the hose to the other end. Will this work?
Hi Perrenialguy. Since most of the washing machines have a hose thread connection, this style hose end shut off valve might work, but I would use the Orbit Brass Hose End Shut Off Valve instead. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Orbit-3-4-in-Threaded-Brass-Shut-Off-Coupling-27933/100659291 What I am not clear on is your water source. Is it coming in from a hose bib? How are you connecting to your water supply for your washing machine? You might also consider the pipe thread to hose thread shut off valve if you have a pipe thread water line near by: http://www.homedepot.com/s/washing%2520machine%2520shut%2520off%2520valve?NCNI-5 Most washing machine water connections have two female ends: http://www.homedepot.com/p/GE-4-ft-Universal-Stainless-Steel-Washer-Hoses-PM14X10008DS/205473453 Please provide bit more information so we can give you a more complete answer. Thanks, Rick_HD_OC
I don’t see any reason why this wouldn’t work. Just be sure all connections are very tight to avoid leaks.
I have to pressure wash a fence and I have very high water pressure in my area, not to mention on the pressure washer as well. Can I connect 1 end of a 50-foot hose from my faucet to this metal hose shut off, and then another 50-foot hose from this shutoff to the pressure washer? It would be cool if this can serve double duty: 1) to join 2 hoses and 2) to shut off the water when taking breaks :)
This shut off is designed for use with water and household water pressures of 20 to 80 PSI.
Sure you can use the cutoff valve as a connector.
I have no outside faucet. Can I attach this to the faucet in kitchen sink and then to a hose so I can water plants and fill a kiddie pool? I have been carrying buckets to do this.
absolutely NOT! you might be able to attach to the garage sink faucet
Our products are only tested with outside use in mind but I believe that shut off will work in the application you describe.
I need to connet that hose to The one of a portable dishwasher and i'd like to keep it always connetted without The need to screw it off every time i use The washing machine, that's Why i need a valve on a connettor within two hoses
Yes
