Waterway Plastics 400-2070 On Off Valve - 0.75 inch Slip to Male

What This Part Is Used For
The Waterway Plastics 400-2070 On Off Valve is used to manually control water flow in pool and spa plumbing systems. It allows technicians or owners to isolate sections of plumbing for maintenance or adjustments. This valve is commonly installed on accessory lines, water features, or auxiliary returns. By providing a simple shutoff point, it improves system serviceability. It is typically used in low to moderate flow applications.

Why This Part Matters
Being able to shut off water flow without draining the entire system saves time and reduces downtime. Without a dedicated valve, servicing one component can require full system shutdown. This on off valve provides precise control at the point of use. Worn or seized valves can lead to leaks or restricted flow. Replacing faulty valves restores proper system management.
