About Float Valves
Float valves are vital components in hydroponic systems. If you are building a do-it-yourself (DIY) hydroponic garden from scratch or you need a replacement float valve for your current system, HTG Supply has a wide range of options to meet all your needs.
What Are Float Valves?
Hydroponic water float valves regulate water flow in your hydroponic system. A float valve has an air-filled bulb or another buoyant object that rises with the water level in your reservoir. The buoyant component connects to a shut-off valve via a rigid stem piece.
As the bulb rises, the stem piece rotates to shut the valve. Once the water reaches a predetermined level in the reservoir, the valve will close completely to stop the water flow. The bulb lowers as your plants absorb the water, and the valve reopens accordingly. This process ensures that your plants always receive the appropriate amount of water, making float valves an ideal choice for systems with a continuous water supply.
