Description
Overview
The 20mm float valve is a plastic, high capacity valve that keeps water in a tank, trough or reservoir at a steady level. As the water drops, the float lowers and opens the valve. When the level rises again the float lifts and closes it, so you do not need to check or shut anything off by hand. Its high capacity design passes a good flow for a 20mm inlet, and the plastic will not rust. See more in our pipe fittings range.

Where it works
Livestock farmers in Limpopo, the Free State and the Eastern Cape fit a 20mm float valve to cattle and sheep troughs so the trough refills from a borehole line without attention. Smallholders and homeowners use it in rainwater harvesting tanks, header tanks and garden reservoirs. It also suits irrigation holding tanks and site water tanks. If you want a ready-to-fit set with a brass valve, see the float valve kit, or step up to the 50mm plastic float valve when you need more flow.

Questions about this product
Does the 20mm float valve come with a ball?
The box holds the 20mm valve only. You will need a float ball on the arm. We stock orange ball floats in our fittings range, and the full float valve kit already includes a ball, a brass valve and a tank connector if you want everything in one box.
Can I use it on a livestock trough?
Yes. Troughs are one of the main uses. The valve opens when the trough level falls and closes once it is full, so the trough stays topped up. Fit it where animals cannot knock or chew the float arm, and protect it with a cover if needed.
How much is delivery to a farm near Upington?
We deliver to Upington and the rest of the Northern Cape in 1 to 3 days. This valve weighs 0.2 kg, so alone it falls in the up to 30 kg band at R550. Delivery is free on orders of R20,000 or more, VAT incl.
