Good value

This is a good replacement for a 20+ year vacuum breaker that started leaking. It was so crusty, I couldn't get to the guts to replace gaskets. This was simple to install and encouraging to see there are kits available for gasket replacement if that time comes. Hopefully, this will last equally long and not need any replacement parts. This is well built and is functioning properly.

Solid design, must have for a self draining irrigation system

The solid design well built vacuumed valve. Replaced an old 38 yr old vacuum valve.

Works, and is $20 less than in HD.

I was skeptical about his Orbit vacuum breaker because of its low cost, but it seems to be of good quality and does the job. Its not a complicated device (none of these are), and it does seem well made. Saved myself $20 on one unit over HD. What else need be said.

They worked for my project. Fast shipping good price. About half of what the chain hardware stores charge.

Heavy-duty, no signs of occasional "regurgitation" like the plastic Orbit vacuum breakers

I installed oneOrbit Sprinkler System 3/4-Inch Brass Atmospheric Vacuum Breaker 51059 on a retention tank for our irrigation well, and it's doing great - just plugged the outlet with a 3/4" metal plug from a big-box store and some pipe dope, and the tank is protected from crushing due to vacuum on the discharge line - not something I really need to worry about in Florida, with a shallow well, but the tank manufacturer (Pentair) insists. It's very nice that this valve doesn't seem to regurgitate out the top at all when pressure is removed and then reapplied - we have another plastic Orbit vacuum valve, and it definitely DOES leak a little water out the top when pressure is removed and then reapplied. Not having any staining on the exterior of the tank from a slightly-leaking vacuum breaker is a plus - one less thing to maintain!

Works great, solved my water hammer problems.

I have a decent grade in my backyard, that climbs about 8' over a 60 foot run from my water valve. While I have a solid brass, expensive double-cock valve at the source, that didn't prevent the water from hammering in the pipes every time the sprinkler valves (which reside at the top of the run) shut off after a cycle. I placed the valve about 12" above the valve box, between the water source and the valves, and now every time they run, the vacuum break properly allows the pressure to drop back to the source valve and not cause any chattering (and without running the risk of sucking garbage back into the sprinkler valves themselves). Great product!

They don’t last

I purchase 2 of them to place them in my sprinkler system with only one valve and both of them did not lasted more than a week. The internal plastic broke and there is no way to replace it. Better buy something more robust.
