Got a 6-inch pump setup that keeps losing prime overnight. Would a foot valve like this help hold it?

Answer by: Customer Support on Nov 27, 2025, 11:42 AM

Keeping prime is exactly what these are built for. The valve sits at the inlet and holds water in the line when the pump shuts off, so you're not starting dry every morning. Cast iron construction means it'll hold up to regular use without wearing down fast, and the painted finish gives it some extra protection if conditions get rough around the intake.
