Q. What is the purpose of an angle valve?
A. An angle valve controls water flow to fixtures like faucets, geysers, or flush tanks and allows easy shut-off for maintenance without turning off the main water supply.
Q. What’s the difference between a regular angle valve and a two-way angle valve?
A. A regular angle valve has one inlet and one outlet, while a two-way angle valve has one inlet and two outlets—letting you connect and control water flow to two fixtures from a single valve.
Q. Where are angle valves typically used?
A. They’re commonly installed beneath wash basins, behind toilets, or near geysers to regulate and isolate water supply as needed.
Q. Can I control both outlets of a two-way angle valve independently?
A. Yes, most two-way angle valves have separate knobs or levers for each outlet, allowing individual control over connected fixtures.
Q. Are angle valves compatible with both hot and cold water lines?
A. Yes, high-quality angle valves made of brass or stainless steel can safely handle both hot and cold water, making them suitable for all residential and commercial plumbing needs.
