Learn How Strataflo's Foot
Valves Operate
Many people may have heard of a foot valve, but what does it really
do? The team at Strataflo has released a new blog post helping
readers understand how a foot valve operates.
Let's take a deeper
dive into everything to
know about foot
valves.
A foot valve is a type of
check valve used in
pumps at the suction
base, or foot, of the
pipe.
Fot valves are installed at
the bottom of a well or tank,
the weight of the fluid on top
of the valve is enough to
close the valve,.
A screen at the valve
opening prevents
debris from entering
and clogging the valve.
Flapper-style foot valves also use a flapper
to control liquid flow.
Foot valves are essential to protect pumps from backflow and
allow pipes to remain primed with liquid, saving energy and
ensuring it's ready when required.
