which ball valve - high pressure or low pressure?
Hello,
Should I purchase a ball valve marked 'high pressure' or one that is marked 'low pressure'? It's for the water tank in the loft fed by the rising main. Hope I make sense Wayne. |

You can always use a high pressure in a low pressure situation, but not the other way around so why not be safe? |

My SWAG is that low pressure is for gas lines. -- Free men own guns, slaves don't www.geocities.com/CapitolHill/5357/ |
