FAQs

What is the purpose of a ball valve?

A ball valve is designed to control the flow of water by opening and closing a ball-shaped mechanism within the valve body. This allows you to shut off water to specific areas of your plumbing system.

How do I install the JG Speedfit 22mm Ball Valve?

Simply push the pipe into the Speedfit fitting until it reaches the internal stop. No tools are needed for installation.

Can I use this valve for hot water?

Yes, this valve is suitable for both hot and cold water applications. The lever handle is color-coded for easy identification: blue for cold, red for hot.

Is this valve suitable for all types of pipes?

This valve is compatible with JG Speedfit pipes and fittings. Always ensure compatibility with your existing plumbing system.

What should I do if the valve leaks?

First, check the push-fit connections to ensure the pipes are fully inserted. If the leak persists, you may need to replace the valve or re-cut the pipe squarely before re-inserting.

Can this valve be used with chilled water?

No, this valve is not suitable for chilled water applications.

How do I maintain the JG Speedfit Ball Valve?

Regularly check for leaks at the connections and operate the handle fully to ensure proper sealing.

What does PN40 mean?

PN40 indicates the pressure rating of the valve. PN40 means the valve is designed to withstand a nominal pressure of 40 bar.

Troubleshooting

Valve leaks at the push-fit connection.

Ensure the pipe is fully inserted into the fitting. If the leak persists, disconnect the fitting and re-cut the pipe squarely before re-inserting.

Valve handle is stiff or difficult to turn.

The valve may be under pressure. Ensure the water supply is turned off, and then try operating the handle again. If the problem persists, the valve may need replacing.
