There are no threads to seal and nothing to tape.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy the union matters\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSingle union means one side of the valve carries a union nut. Undo the nut and the valve comes out of the run without a saw, which turns a valve replacement from a plumbing job into a five minute swap. It also lets you rotate the valve body to get at the seat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn use\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA ball valve goes from full flow to fully closed in a quarter turn. Putting one on each side of a pump, filter or heater means you can isolate that piece of equipment and work on it without draining the rest of the system.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Praher","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48627243909332,"sku":"PRA-56-4000","price":36.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_c713bb5c-464e-45b8-bad2-960b5c7aaaac.png?v=1788720280","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/2-sxs-union-ball-valve","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
