Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Soft ballast venting valve
Hi Brian,
While I'm not an expert I will be using 1 1/2 ball valves. The ones that
I've seen are stainless ball but it seats on nylon or some other plastic, so
hopefully siezing should not be a great problem. The nice thing is that they
can be replaced for less that $20.00
Just my 2 cents.
Best Regards,
Jim K

Subject: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Soft ballast venting valve
Happy New Year All,
Does anybody have a suggestion for a ballast venting valve for a soft tank
(
my ferro structure ) that is around 1 1/2" diameter or maybe 2" , I will
most likely use a stainless ball valve but I'm worried that eventually it
is
going to sieze up on me. It seems like those ball valves get awfully hard
to
turn after a while. The butterfly valves that I've seen ( for farm
irrigation ) seem to turn easier , but I haven't seen them in stainless.
Thanks
Brian, Ventura, CA
