Foot Valves
Better Materials. Better Value.
Our aluminum foot valves are lightweight, durable and strong and come in a variety of sizes – from 2” to 12”.
We manufacture a flapper-style valve so when the valve is open, there is very low friction loss for a wide-open efficient valve.
Choosing Between a 45° and Vertical Foot Valve
When to Use a 45° Foot Valve:
When the pump is off, and the foot valve’s flapper is closed or seated against the valve’s seat ring, the flapper and the seat ring should be at an angle. If the suction line is flat or horizontal (floating parallel with the surface of the water) you would use a 45° foot valve:
When to Use a Vertical Foot Valve:
If there is some drop angle to the suction line, you would use a vertical or straight valve:
