Choosing Between High and Low-Pressure Ball Float Valves

Choosing Between High and Low-Pressure Ball Float Valves? Understanding the Impact on Cistern Filling

Ball float valves play a crucial role in the water-filling process of your cistern. Let’s delve into the distinction between High and Low-Pressure Ball Float Valves and how they affect the filling dynamics.

Low-Pressure Valves

A Low-Pressure Ball features a larger hole in the valve assembly, designed to expedite the tank or cistern filling process. While this results in quicker filling, it’s essential to note that if the water pressure is too high, it can lead to excessive noise or water hammer issues.

High-Pressure Valves

Conversely, a High-Pressure Ball or insert comes with a smaller hole. This configuration extends the time required to fill the cistern or tank. The advantage is a more controlled and less noisy filling process.
