Orbit Sprinkler System Valve
Best reliable valve for homeowners managing residential irrigation systems.
This is the irrigation valve you install and forget, thanks to a clever internal filter that keeps sediment from ruining your flow. The jar-top design makes maintenance painless, though you sacrifice a bit of rugged, heavy-duty housing for that convenience. It’s the perfect balance of accessibility and reliable performance for most home lawns.
