Pump Valves

Featured Replies

When replacing pump valves (28mm pipe) should I go for gate valves or ball valves and is a name like Pegler important?

 

Cheers

All I can say is DO NOT go for the cheap ones that Screwfix sell. they seem designed to last no longer than the pump, thus making them completely pointless.

Thanks for the tip, was just looking at them on SF!

I use full bore gate valves and get them from JTM

 

That's what I'll do then.

 

Only just starting to drain down my CH now. Had a crap night with vermin in the wall/ceiling then the poxy cat bringing something back and devouring it on the stairs! Ended up sleeping on the sofa.

 

Off to get a 28mm pipe slice at TS first. I forgot that I took work's one back. 

 

If I get the IntaKlean in I can let the system cleaner run round whilst I wait for the decent pump valves.

 

Going to be a cold night here!
