Customer Reviews for Lawn Genie 1 in. Anti-Siphon Valve with Flow Control

Bought to replace an existing Lawn Genie 1 inch valve that began to leak. It fixed the problem.

The valve leaked through as soon as I put it in service.

Laval was easy to install as the instructions stated. I purchased two valves at different times and they both seeped water at the top of the anti siphon valve but they are both easy to turn on and off and work properly.

Great valve takes care of control valve plus back flow preventer.

I bought this to replace a 20 year old valve that was leaking. This valve controls my lawn sprinklers. With the flow control full on, it only shoots water about 5 feet. With the manual control full on it shoots 12'.

Have not gotten this valve to work properly yet!! I am a novice at irrigation but I have this valve installed, replacing an old one. So far after working at it off and on for 3 days, it does not shut off after the designated time. The so called “instructions” are minimal, referring to flow control and bleed knobs with no identification of which is which. Oh, the flow control is supposedly white, but there are no white parts on this device. I’m not a plumber or I wouldn’t need their worthless instructions. I am thoroughly frustrated right now. Not so much with the product as the documentation. Unless you are very familiar with these valves, I would look for a brand with better documentation.

I bought 5 of these and 2 of them leak at the jar top of the outlet valve. Opened them up and both have crushed seals. No leak after I re-aligned seal and turned the top tight. Bad quality control.

leaked all over the place!

Poorly constructed product. It started leaking a day after it was installed by my gardener. Leak coming from the assembly itself and not from the connecting pipes, couplings or adaptors.

All good went together like the man said, really pleased so far.Helen

I bought two of these valves but when I installed the first one it was leaking from the cap. I had to replace it with the second one I don't know if they test these or the one I put on was just old? The second did work and everything is fine but now I have to order another one just in case I need it down the line.

Just as we needed to replace our over 30-yr old worn out valve. Replacement was easy and works perfectly.

Ok

Worked well no issues.

I purchased 8 Replacement valves model L7010, two of the eight were bad. One blew out after a week completely blew out the second wouldn't shut off once it was turned on by the timer. I purchased two replacement valves and one of them was missing the air gap screw. Very disappointed considering the amount of Labor it takes to install. I called their customer service line and they were not at all helpful again super disappointed. They told me just to return them to the store.

great

did exactly what I needed

Exact replacement of one that failed (after about 30 yrs use). Good product, Glad they were still available

This was a replacement valve. It was easy to install and it works fine. The only problem I am having is stopping a leak at the threaded connection to the pressure side of the main line. I have taken it apart twice and hope the third time is a charm.

The anti-siphon worked as advertised. Thank you

The screw on cap is weak, and it breaks causing a gusher. Not good especially if youre on vacation.The only good news is it can be replaced easily- without changing the whole valve

Great product. The last Lawn genie valve lasted 27 years before leaking. It was easy to replace in bout 10 minutes. I recommend.

I bought three of them, & the second one i installed sprayed water all over like a sprinkler instead of a valve. It was missing it's diaphragm. two worked out of 3, but 3 out 3 is what i was expecting ! The exposed packaging is just asking for thieves to help them selves to free parts .

Never could make the anti-siphon work properly, and had to go a different way.

The valve is ok for the value, but there is no parts available if repaired are needed. The only option is to replace the whole valve.

Bought 2. Good

Too soon to tell but it provides ease of controlling the water flow and easy to install. However, this product does not last very long based on previous experience because it allows leaks to the water lines.
