Ball Valves Tap Water

Choose the right ball valve for tap water

A ball valve for tap water is one of the most important components in a safe plumbing system. The valve's task is to quickly and completely control or shut off the water flow to specific parts of the property, for example at kitchen faucets, washing machines or larger distribution installations. By choosing a quality valve that is specifically designed for tap water systems, you ensure that the installation meets the requirements for tightness and corrosion resistance.

Advantages of ball valves in tap water systems

• Quick and easy operation: A simple quarter-turn of the lever or knob is enough to open or close the flow completely.
• High tightness: The design with a ground ball inside the housing provides minimal risk of leakage.
• Versatile connections: Available with internal and external threads, angle design and compression ring coupling for easy installation.
• Durable materials: Made of dezincification-resistant brass or stainless steel for long life and resistance to corrosion.

Important things to consider before purchasing

Before ordering your ball valve, it is important to review some basic specifications to make sure the valve is suitable for your installation:

1. Dimensions and connection type: Check the pipe size of the system (e.g. G15, G20, 15 mm or 22 mm compression ring) and whether you need internal or external threads.
2. Installation space: In tight spaces, such as under sinks or behind appliances, a model with a knob or angled connection can make operation easier compared to a long lever.
3. Location and function: Consider whether you need a standard valve for straight pipework or special solutions for, for example, water meter brackets or drains.
