Camco Mfg 36170 Water Blow-out Hose Kit with Ball Valve

Product Description

The CAMCO MFG 36170 is a water blow-out hose kit designed for winterizing plumbing systems by purging water from supply lines using compressed air. The kit includes a hose and a brass ball valve that provides manual shutoff control during the blow-out process. The brass construction of the ball valve offers corrosion resistance suited to wet service environments. At 3.5 pounds, the kit is compact enough for field use by plumbers and service technicians performing seasonal maintenance on residential or light commercial plumbing systems.

This kit is intended for blow-out winterization procedures where compressed air is introduced into a plumbing system to evacuate standing water before freezing temperatures set in. It is commonly used on RV systems, residential potable water lines, and irrigation supply connections. The included ball valve gives the installer direct flow control without requiring a separate shutoff.

Key Features

• Brass ball valve provides corrosion-resistant manual flow control
• Hose and valve combination allows single-kit setup for blow-out procedures
• Suited for compressed-air winterization of potable water and irrigation lines
• Compact at 3.5 pounds for portable field use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service kit for residential and light commercial plumbing blow-out applications requiring a hose-and-valve assembly.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified service technician familiar with compressed-air winterization procedures. Shut off the main water supply and relieve system pressure before connecting the blow-out kit. Follow local plumbing codes and the compressor manufacturer's pressure guidelines when introducing air into the system. Do not exceed the rated pressure of any downstream plumbing components.
