Title: Dump Valves
Post by: luvrbus on December 21, 2021, 12:39:56 PM
Anybody use the Dupree dump valves here,they cost more than the regular dump valves you find on RV's but look a lot better made than the cheap valves you can buy at every place.I ordered a manual type for my daughter's RV.I am switching over to the air operated dump valves the mickey mouse electric valves from Drain Master and Barker do not last,I replaced my Barker last year and they shot again.Tell me what you think www.dupreeproducts.com

I like the Dupree air valves, good units Clifford. The blue XL I had down at your place when we finished my engine build had those Dupree air dumps. Remember how fast it took me to run up the Hill to dump Lol! ;)

Newell has used them for years. Keep a couple of the paddle inserts as spares. Chlorine tends to eat them up, and they can stick or leak.

If you are going to pipe in a pneumatic one, keep in mind the air pressure is held both directions, so no one way actuation valves.

They take a unique to them sewer hose connection.
