I've done some searching, but haven't turned up anything I imagine it should look like. TIA I don't know if there is such a valve, but what about a 1/2" tee fitting with a 1/4" reducer on one side of the tee? 1/2" in, 1/2" out on one side of the tee, and a 1/2" to 1/4" reducer on the other side of the T. -- Bill In Hamptonburgh, NY In the original Orange County.

No more problems for 14 years. Cool. I didn't know they had such a reduction tee. Disclaimer: I am not a plumber. -- Bill In Hamptonburgh, NY In the original Orange County.

A 1/2x1/2x1/2 only needs at most 2 reducing bushings to accomplish the same thing. Amazing the things you can do with pvc/cpvc fittings. Harry K |
