Excellent!

1 inch FTP Single Union Ball V by DOUG WATSON

Experience Level: Beginner

Posted on 8/13/2007 from RAPID CITY, SD UNITED STATES

Comments: I've just installed two of these valves into my aquarium plumbing. After two days of leak checks for one valve it has worked well. I have turned it off and on numerous times under pressure and developed no leaks. I wish the same could be said for the second identical valve. All connections were teflon taped (I'm a plumber) and the large plastic union screw was tight. This particular valve leaked alot in short order. I shut down my system, disassembled the valve, and quickly found this Spears valve defective. The 'back' side of the ball seal that sits in the base of the housing had two deep creases in the back side of the teflon seal. According to Spears they state that they pressure check their valves... These are just the "cold wet facts" based upon my experience of Spears 'ball valve' and reviewing Spears website.
I would not recommend this product to my friends.
