Selecting the Right Size Valve
Selecting the right size valve is very important to the performance of your Jobe Rojo float valve. The inlet of the float valve should match your supply plumbing. For instance if your water supply plumbing is 1/2 inch you will get no better performance from a 3/4 inch valve than your 1/2 water supply plumbing can provide. Your flow rate will always be limited by the smallest pipe. Always match your valve inlet size to your water supply pipe size. If you intend on upgrading your water supply plumbing at some point you can always purchase a different tail here to upgrade your ROJO float valve from 1/2 inch up to 3/4 inch. Please note the maximum inlet size for a Jobe ROJO float valve is 3/4 inch, if you have a larger water supply line you will want to utilize a different product from the Jobe Valves lineup.
