INTRODUCTION
This package contains 2 U.S. Solid DN25 1 in PVC true union ball valves for use in water, irrigation, pool, aquarium, wastewater, and water-treatment systems. The full-port design helps reduce flow restriction, while the removable center body allows inspection, cleaning, and seal replacement without cutting the connected pipe. Slip socket ends fit 1 in US IPS Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 PVC pipe with an outside diameter of 1.315 in (33.4 mm). Rated for 150 psi at 59°F (15°C), with a maximum operating temperature of 131°F (55°C). Use a suitable PVC primer and solvent cement. Not NSF certified or intended for certified drinking water systems, compressed gas, or oil.

Installation and Pipe Connection
1. Place the o-rings: Install one EPDM o-ring in each groove on the valve body.
2. Connect the pvc pipe: Use matching schedule 40 or schedule 80 pvc pipe. Apply pvc primer and solvent cement to the pipe and slip socket. Insert the pipe fully and hold securely.
3. Align both sides: Align the valve body with both union connections.
4. Tighten the union nuts: Hand-tighten both union nuts evenly. Do not glue the union nuts.
5. Open or close the valve: Rotate the handle 90° for quick manual flow control.
FAQ
1.Why choose a True Union Ball Valve?
A True Union Ball Valve makes maintenance easier. The center valve body can be removed from the piping system without cutting or rebuilding the connected pipe.
2.Can this valve be used for drinking water?
NO. This product is not NSF certified and is not intended for certified drinking water systems.
3.Where can this valve be used?
It is suitable for use in water systems, irrigation, swimming pools, aquariums, ponds, wastewater, and water-treatment applications.
4.Can I clean or repair the valve without removing the pipes?
Yes. After shutting off the system and releasing the pressure, loosen the union nuts to remove the center body for inspection, cleaning, or seal replacement.
5.Does this valve prevent backflow?
No. This is a ball valve, not a check valve. Use a separate check valve if backflow prevention is required.
6.How can I help prevent leaks during installation?
Make sure the pipe and valve socket are clean and properly prepared before bonding. Insert the pipe fully, allow the joint to cure as directed, and avoid over-tightening the union nuts.
