Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why choose brass over plastic fill valves?
A: Brass construction is far more durable than plastic, resisting corrosion, UV degradation, and mechanical wear. Brass valves provide years of reliable service in demanding outdoor applications where plastic valves often fail.
Q: What is included with this valve?
A: The WFS50 includes the brass valve body, brass rod (arm), plastic float, and fittings to connect to standard irrigation tubing.
Q: How do I adjust the water level?
A: The valve rod (arm) is adjustable. Bend or adjust the rod to raise or lower the float position, which changes the water level at which the valve closes.
Q: What if my water pressure is too high?
A: If your water pressure exceeds 35 psi, install an inline pressure regulator before the fill valve to reduce pressure to the recommended range and ensure proper valve operation.
Q: What's the difference between the 8" and 12.5" models?
A: The 12.5" model (WFS50) has a longer rod assembly, making it better suited for larger skimmers, deeper vaults, or installations requiring greater vertical adjustment range.
