Three Way Valve

[carlyai]

Anyone know where I can buy a valve like this please.

Google: three way water valve lazada.

Yup, Lazada is your friend ^^^.

 

Most pool supply places should have them too.

 

Note that they come in a number of flavours dependant upon just which ports they switch and how they switch them, check you are ordering one that does what you want it to do ???? 

 

EDIT The one on Madam's koi filter can block any of the three ports or leave all three open together.

I would like one with a bigger handle. Difficult to push and turn

I'm sure a man of your calibre could fabricate a handle extension ????

I had a look at Lazada, but I really want the exact same valve, as I will just replace the middle movable bit with the handle and leave the body as is. Some idiot broke the handle.

Any indication where it came from? Maybe they still have that valve.

Yeah it's from the USA, my AST bubble bead filter. A real pain getting the Thai blue pipe and the American white pipe fittings to match, that's why I don't want to change the whole fitting.

Instead of 3-way valve you can implement 2 simple valves, each in the outgoing pipes, always one open, the other closed.

That's how I close my sucking from pool (and from overflow tank) and open to vacuuming hose.

Thanks, but it had to fit in a existing pump setup. I got one.

Still, in case you cannot get the 3-way valve, it's not a big deal to install a T-piece PVC instead of the 3-way valve and a simple valve on each left and right side.
