I just had the Watts 009 inspected today by our water company. It is protecting my water supply from potential backflow from my irrigation system. It passed with flying colors. The inspection guy loves this model.
It was easy to install (my cousin and I did it in about 1.5 hours, and we're rookies). Beacuse it's outside, we used unions, so I'll be able to remove it each autumn to avoid it freezing. Great product!

Internal plastic parts need extra care

If you live in an area where there are freezing winter temperatures, then you should remove the check valves and stem for the winter. Otherwize you will have to replace them...which costs about the same as the whole unit. I would have given the unit a 5 if the parts were not so expensive.

Best 1/2" backflow out there!

By Bugg

Comments about Watts 2" Bronze RPZ (009M2QT):

Put this product in for a makeup water line on a Boiler system. If you need a 1/2" RP Backflow this one in my experience has the least maintenance required. Don't really have any bad comments about it.

      This 3/4" unit is only approved for horizontal installations. Please refer to the link below for more information.

      A:

      Horizontal Only!

      Answered on 4/2/2012 by Another PexSupply Customer

    • VERIFIED BUYER

      A:

      I don't know for certain. But I would bet this needs to be horizontal. If it opens up and drains, you will want it to vent from the bottom into a drain line. That will be much less mess if installed horizontally.

      Answered on 4/1/2012 by Another PexSupply Customer

    • VERIFIED BUYER

      A:

      Install horizontally with 12" clearance below.

      Answered on 3/31/2012 by Another PexSupply Customer

    • VERIFIED BUYER

      A:

      Ideally, this valve would be installed right side up. This valve is
      designed to be installed with the drain hole (unthreaded, open hole in
      center of unit) facing down. This puts the two valves (green vinyl-coated
      butterfly handles) facing forward. The unit could be installed in ANY
      position and still function perfectly; but any moisture venting from the
      unit would run down or over the valve, which isn’t as elegant, functionally,
      as having it drop away from the unit. I have had this unit installed in my
      own radiant heating system for well over a year and the only moisture vented
      was about ¼ cup during the initial system start-up period. One caveat: do
      not install the unit in a way such that water would drip from the vent onto
      pumps, boiler or any electrical equipment.

      Answered on 3/30/2012 by Another PexSupply Customer

    • VERIFIED BUYER

      A:

      It can be installed either way – read the detailed instructions. We prefer horizontal if space allows.

      Answered on 3/30/2012 by Another PexSupply Customer

    • VERIFIED BUYER

      A:

      I installed mine vertically and it passed inspection with my Water Company.
      I don't know whether it can be installed horizontally

  • Q:

    temperature range, max. allowed??

    • VERIFIED BUYER

      A:

      I am unsure as to what the reference is however I am going to assume this is for the temperature range of a water heater. 125 degrees is the proper Max allowed temperature to prevent scald burns.

      Answered on 2/21/2012 by Marco from Greene, Maine

    • CUSTOMER CARE

      A:

      This unit is rated for water temperatures up to 180°F.

      It sounds to us as if a gasket inside the unit may need to be changed.

      A:

      It is always a good idea to install a wye strainer. Please consult your local codes for requirements.

    Does this product come with the air gap? Or does that need to be purchased separately?

      A:

      No, this does not come w/ an air gap. Item 0881399 will be the air gap for your 1/2 009 QT.
