IRRIGATION VALVES
BALL VALVES
BRASS PRESSURE REGULATORS
In my 35 years experience I have installed hundreds of professional grade irrigation valves and have stuck with two brands for good reason. They are built tough and are the easiest to operate.
Most of these links point to Amazon so I have tried to find the best sellers at the best price and that offer Amazon Prime or at least free shipping. I don’t yet list every model since they are not all available through my affiliates. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. Thank you for helping to support this convenient service and the educational Sprinkler Pros YouTube channel. Watch the BEST OF Series to learn about these two great brands of irrigation valves.

1" x 3/4" PVC male adapter
This is the special fitting mentioned in the Best Irrigation Valves video that can be tough to find. It can be used with 1″ valves to reduce down to 3/4″ pipe.
The current link is for a brand that I don’t use but I haven’t yet found a link for the Spears or Lasco professional brands that I use.
2711APR 3/4" anti-siphon
This is the 3/4″ model. It is probably the most widely used anti-siphon valve in the industry. The handle attached to the solenoid is for turning on the valve manually. Do that sparingly to make the valve last longer.
