Blackbird Realty and Management, Inc. shares very useful tips about water valves and how to maintain them, particularly during some of the extreme temperatures we find in Las Vegas. We’re looking specifically at the back flow anti-siphon valve. This is an expensive piece of pipe and when it breaks, floods or freezes, you are often looking at a large repair bill. Jimmi McKee from S & J Landscaping and McKee Development talks about how to best maintain your water valves and protect them from inclement weather. According to him, the easiest thing to do is to invest in a cover. It is very inexpensive and keeps your valves well-insulated. Another option is a fake rock which you could just place over the valve. Once a cover is available, keep the water valve wrapped well with tape and foam because they can crack from the cold, and the heat can cause problems too. It is also best to know where the little notch is so you would know how to turn the valves on and off. Using this notch is an easy way to shut off your irrigation water without going to the street to take care of it. Lastly, take a look at the hose beds on the house. These are similar to the water valves in how they need to be maintained and protected. These hose beds are exterior to the house and they’re easy to find. If the temperature goes below 32 degrees, they can freeze. Buy a bonnet that goes over the hose beds. These are simple to install and will keep your hose protected.
