Dump Valves.....

[Nate The Great]

Which is better, gate or ball valves? I know gate valves like sand & all that good stuff to mess up the rubber seal. Looking to find the best dump valve. Post pics of yours.

a full port ball valve is best

knife valves are cheap and belong on portys

I have one like that Nate and never had any problems out of it. I don't see why it wouldn't last as long as the tm.

No sand, debris, anything clog it or make them hard to close? I bought a POS 2" PVC ball valve with a T handle from Home Depot and it's b!tch to close. My pops told me it wasn't made for waste water.

THOSE THINGS ARE JUNK

go to plumbing supply dealer
Not a hardware store, but a place where the professional/commercial pipe fitters buy their stuff

the one on e-bay looks like it, but it'll cost more than $25 bucks

Ok, got ya Larry. You had to scroll down alittle on the page to see the 2" SS ball valve. It was like $49.99.

Just listen to Larry.

It's just too late in the evening for me to put up with stupid, dumbassed questions like this, and my xanax hasn't kicked in yet.

Apparently you can't read very good Marty. Go to sleep, it's passed your bedtime. The only posts that are dumb are the ones posted under hogjowl...

I hope you have a son of your own soon.

I want to see what it does to YOUR personality.

I will have kids when I'm ready. I don't want my kid(s) to be an accident. Seems like you needed more work in parenting. You get back what you put out.
