What Is A Garden Valve?
Garden valve is a device used to supply water to the outside of a building, especially for watering the garden, watering plants, washing the car or other work related to the use of outdoor space.
HowTo Install A Garden Valve?
Proper installation affects the efficiency of the entire garden hose. It is best to install it so that the external water valve is 50 cm above the ground. When choosing a garden hose, you should also remember that it is better to drain the water before winter. Otherwise, it may freeze. The garden tap should be higher than the pipe connection.
In this case, you can still install a drain valve. The new section of pipe should be short, so that the water does not freeze. In turn, the pipe extending from the main valve should have a large diameter, preferably 15 mm or 12 mm. If you want to avoid soldering, it is best to install the valve with a quick connector. Before starting work, you need to close the shut-off valve and also determine the place for inserting the tee. It should be installed even if the space in the garden is not large. The pipes can still be connected using connectors. Installing a tee is also necessary.
Where Is The Best Place To Place A Garden Valve?
You need to find a suitable place in the garden and connect the garden hose there. The place must be prepared in such a way that rainwater does not get into it. The garden valve can be screwed to a wall connector, but it can also be mounted on the wall. Of course, you need to choose garden taps that are strong. A good tap is made of brass. This material is indeed resistant to corrosion. It is also very durable even under the influence of variable pressures or loads. A tap in the garden can be used to water the ground.
In fact, it is best to place both a free-standing tap and a double tap on the facade of the house, e.g. on a plinth or an external wall. It should be placed at such a height that it is easy to fill a bucket or watering can. Of course, you can choose a free-standing draw-off tap that is mounted directly in the ground. In fact, the installation is not difficult and can be done really quickly. For example, you can decide on a model that has no visible welds, and the post is 75 cm high. Plugs, Teflon tape and mounting screws are used for installation.
