The WYE Series is a y-type strainer designed for critical applications that require high flow rates, high loading potentials, and minimal pressure drop. WYE strainers feature a cleanout valve that eliminates the need for removing the basket when performing routine cleaning.

If you have a valve, turning off the water to your washing machine is very similar to the procedure for shutting off the water to your toilet.

Even though you’ve stopped water from running into the appliance, there will still be water left in the tank, which could leak, so it’s best to drain the water out.

Read on to learn how to use the water shut off valves in your home to stop leaks, prevent water damage, and make repairs. We cover the main water line, water heaters, toilets, and washing machines below.

All of our strainers are available in duplex configuration, which includes the option is to purchase a duplex assembly minus the isolation valves. See our Duplex Strainers for more information

If you’re experiencing a leak within your home, knowing how to control the water shut off valves to your main appliances can prevent the issue from getting worse, saving your budget, your possessions, and your home. It’s a good idea to locate all shut off valves and regularly check the shutoff valves in your house to ensure they are working correctly before an emergency occurs. A difficult-to-turn shutoff, one that shows signs of rust, or one that is leaking should be replaced.

WYE-type strainers are commonly used for in-line piping in either vertical or horizontal orientation in sizes 2” and up. Not sure what you need? Call 888-551-0511 to speak to us immediately or contact us.

If your washing machine is experiencing a leak or you need to perform repairs, you’ll want to turn off the water supply. Depending on the type of washing machine you have, there are a couple ways to shut off the water.

If you have a leak at your water heater or on a hot water line, it’s important to turn off the water as quickly as possible to reduce the water damage to your home and belongings. These steps will stop a leak from becoming a disaster.

But first, you need to know where the valve to the main water supply or the homeowner shutoff is located. If you don’t know, call a plumber for assistance. Don’t wait to find out! It’s a good idea to learn the location before you run into a serious issue.
