When I plumbed my system, I bought an inexpensive ball valve from True Value. It never functioned correctly. I have always had trouble opening and closing the valve. It seems very sticky. When I set up my q/t I plumbed on of these ball valves and the difference is night and day. The operation is head and shoulders above the generic valve. Plus it doubles as a union.

A must have for any tank plumbing

These are great to have installed for pumps. They make servicing the pump so much easier. They are not cheap so shop around for deals before purchasing. |

They make removing pumps for service a cinch.
The valve closes very smooth.
|
| Didn't like |
They are not cheap

Double Union Ball Valve
| General |
I used convectional plumbing ball valves before and could barely turn them, these turn so easily and keep very well. The unions are just bonus. |
| Liked about it |
These turn SO easily compared to others in the market, allows easy maintenance and access to either side of the union.

true union
| General |
These are a must have for any external pump set up. One on each side. If you are going to use external pumps then you will regret not using these! |
