Ashland Water Group PCV075 Spring Loaded Check Valve

Product Description

The ASHLAND WATER GROUP PCV075 is a 0.75-inch plastic spring loaded check valve designed to allow one-directional flow and prevent backflow in fluid piping systems. The spring mechanism keeps the valve closed under no-flow or reverse-flow conditions, opening only when upstream pressure overcomes the spring force. At 1.5 pounds, this lightweight valve is suited for plumbing, irrigation, and light industrial applications. Licensed plumbers and pipe fitters are the typical installers. The plastic body construction makes it appropriate for corrosion-prone or chemical-resistant install environments.

This check valve fits 0.75-inch pipe configurations and is commonly used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems where backflow prevention is required at individual branch lines, supply connections, or equipment inlets. Typical install scenarios include water treatment systems, pool and spa plumbing, irrigation supply lines, and general utility piping. It is sold in packages of six units, making it practical for multi-point installations or service van stocking.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation check valve for 0.75-inch plastic piping systems in residential and light commercial plumbing, pool, and irrigation applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing any existing valve or fitting. Ensure the valve is oriented in the correct flow direction as indicated by the arrow or inlet marking on the body. Do not overtighten plastic-bodied fittings, as excess torque can crack the valve body or distort the seat seal.
