Pond Y-Valve 25-32-40 mm - SuperFish

Pond Y-valve 25-32-40 mm - SuperFish is a practical adjustable water distributor that allows you to divide the water flow from one pond hose between two separate lines. The Y-valve features one inlet and two outlets, both of which can be adjusted independently. This allows you to distribute the water from a single pond pump, for example, between a filter and a waterfall, or between two other components of the pond system.

The connections are Multi-Step connections and suitable for pond hoses with a diameter of 25, 32 or 40 mm. This makes the Y-valve suitable for a wide range of common pond systems.

Distribute one water flow between two lines

In a pond system, it is common for the water from a single pump to need to be directed to multiple components. Instead of using two separate pumps for this purpose, the SuperFish Y-valve can be used to split one water flow.

The Y-shaped distributor has one central inlet to which the hose from, for example, the pond pump is connected. The water is then distributed between two separate outlets.

You can use the Y-valve, for example, to distribute water to:

• A pond filter
• A waterfall
• A stream
• A fountain
• Two separate return lines
• Other pond equipment with a suitable hose connection

This makes the Y-valve particularly useful when you want to supply water to multiple applications from a single pump.

Both outlets can be adjusted independently

A major advantage over a standard Y-connector is that the two outlets can be adjusted independently.

Each outlet has its own control knob. This allows you to determine how much water flows through each line. You can thus adjust the distribution to suit the system.

For example, if one outlet leads to the pond filter and the other to a waterfall, you can choose to direct the majority of the pump capacity to the filter and a smaller portion to the waterfall.

You can then adjust the distribution until both components function as desired.

This makes the Y-valve considerably more flexible than a standard connector, where the water flow is divided between both outlets without further adjustment.

For 25, 32 and 40 mm pond hoses

The SuperFish Pond Y-valve features Multi-Step connections. These stepped hose fittings are suitable for three commonly used pond hose sizes:

• 25 mm
• 32 mm
• 40 mm

This means you do not need to use a separate Y-valve for each hose diameter.

The Multi-Step connection can be adjusted to the desired hose diameter. The part of the hose fitting that is smaller than the hose being used can be removed according to the instructions on the packaging. This creates a connection that fits the desired diameter.

This is important for maintaining good water flow. If a section of the hose fitting that is too small is left in place, it can cause unnecessary resistance and thus limit the actual water capacity of the system.

Always use hose clamps

When connecting the pond hoses, it is important to secure each hose firmly to the hose fitting.

Therefore, use a suitable hose clamp on the inlet and both outlets. This means you will normally need three hose clamps for a complete installation.

A hose clamp prevents a hose from slipping off the fitting due to water pressure or movement. In addition, a properly fitted hose clamp helps prevent leaks around the connection.

After connecting the system, always check all connections before leaving the pond pump running for an extended period.

Practical for filters and waterfalls

A common application for a Y-valve is combining a pond filter with a second water feature.

If your pond pump has sufficient capacity, you can connect one outlet to the filter system and use the other outlet for a waterfall or stream.

You can then use the two control knobs to set the desired ratio. If you want the waterfall to flow more strongly, you can open this outlet further. If the filter requires more flow, you can direct a larger portion of the available water to the filter.

Always take the actual capacity of the pond pump into account. Adding hoses, couplings, height differences and other components reduces the final water output of a pump.

Not suitable for dry installation

An important product specification for this Y-valve is that SuperFish states that it is not suitable for dry installation.

Keep this in mind when designing the pond system. Use the product exclusively for the application for which it was developed by SuperFish.

For a fully dry technical installation where different requirements are placed on couplings and valves, it is advisable to use suitable pipe components that have been specifically developed for such an application.

Durable plastic construction

The Y-valve is made of plastic and was developed as connection material for pond systems. This makes the product a simple solution when flexible pond hoses need to be divided.

The system operates without electricity and contains no complicated technology. The adjustment is done entirely mechanically via the two control knobs on the outlets.

This allows you to adjust the water distribution directly at the Y-valve.

Convenient solution for a flexible pond system

With the Pond Y-valve 25-32-40 mm - SuperFish, you can easily turn one water line into two separately adjustable lines. Thanks to the Multi-Step connections, you do not need to choose one specific hose size in advance: the valve is suitable for common pond hoses of 25, 32 and 40 mm.

The separate adjustment of both outlets makes this Y-valve particularly practical. You can distribute the available water capacity of the pump based on what the different components of the pond require.

Whether you want to combine a filter with a waterfall, create two return lines, or need a different distribution within the pond system, this SuperFish Y-valve offers a simple and flexible solution.
