1802 - 3/4" Solder Stop & Waste Valve

Meet the 1802 3/4" Solder Stop & Waste Valve — a brand-new brass valve engineered for reliable shut-off with an integrated waste port to drain the line. Designed for 3/4" copper systems using sweat-solder connections, this compact valve brings professional-grade control to every residential or light commercial project.

The standout feature is the Stop & Waste design: you can isolate a section of piping and efficiently drain residual water through the waste port. This makes winterization, maintenance, and quick repairs smoother and less messy—no need to disassemble whole runs. The result is faster service calls and fewer headaches when temperatures drop or lines need servicing.

Why this valve earns its keep

• 3/4" solder connections: Sweat-solder ready for a clean, durable copper installation that minimizes leak paths.
• Integrated waste port: Rapid drainage after isolation, simplifying winterizing outdoor lines, irrigation zones, and hose-bib systems.
• Robust brass body: Built to resist corrosion and stand up to typical water pressures, delivering dependable performance over time.
• High-visibility, easy-to-operate wheel: The bright red handwheel provides confident control in tight spaces and low-light environments.
• Compact footprint: Fits neatly in cramped utility spaces and along complex plumbing runs without crowding surrounding components.

Ideal for isolating sections of domestic water supply for repairs, draining lines to protect against freezing, and maintaining sprinkler or irrigation circuits. This valve is a practical addition to any plumbing toolkit or service vehicle, offering a clear advantage over standard shut-off valves by enabling rapid drainage without extra disassembly.
