- How to install a BALL FLOAT VALVE for an overhead water storage tank so that you make your water tank fully automatic: water is automatically shut-off when the tank is full and water is automatically let in when the water level drops. This video also covers the installation of a PVC BALL SHUT-OFF VALVE at the base of the tank as a fail-safe mechanism to allow repair and maintenance on the ball float valve in the water tank.

Here's a cool video where I built a DIY water level indicator/gauge for the same water tank in the video: th-cam.com/video/kSTS-F6Kxjo/w-d-xo.html

that open container, no lid water collection is a mosquito playground, not sanitary water.
I like the way you show how it works, your so good in this field. i learn a lot from this video
Very helpful tips! A must try DIY, tnx for sharing

Thank you so much for your appreciation. You inspire me to do even better and share more useful DIY videos.
Very informative video mr. handiyman
Stanby nyo lang po b yung tank nyo n nasa video boss kapag wala supply jan sa inyo o jan din po kayo kumukuha nang tubig??
wow tks you sir
i will do it
What happened to zip ties tho?
Bakit p po kayo nag kabit boss nang tank kung may supply po kayo nang tubig galing sa water district nyo po
Para prepared in case of emergency water shortage na madalas mangyari sa area namin 👍
What the hell... The description of what the video is about is misleading. This is an Installation not making your own valve.
Where does it say in the description that this was about making your own valve? I believe i used the word "installation" at least 3x.
Such an informative vedio.... Many tips that I learn this vedio,.
Hi
I have installed 5x tanks in series for my RV , unfortunately after the first tank got filled non of the tanks were getting filled.
Any idea why?
Regards
Water always takes the path of least resistance. Make sure your intake pipe is at the top of the first tank. And the pipes connecting the rest are also near the top of the succeeding tanks.
hi , nice to meet you , great channel and interesting videos , bit of an handyman myself so its cool to see how its done 👍🎥👌
Wlang reinforcement yung pipe sa taas. Buti d tinulak ng float.
Kaya naman ng pvc pipe yung force. Pero I might install a bracket na rin kasabay ng related project to fabricate a cover or lid for the tank. Thanks for the feedback.
I learned a lot from this video thank you for sharing your knowledge
Thanks
Welcome
Napaka gandang video informative thank you.
Thanks.
1) How long should the float valve be for house water tanks (sits on a tower that's about 10 feet, the house is a one storey one)?
2) How many wraps of Teflon tape did it take?
3) I noticed your tape measure is worn out, I'd like to suggest this amazing tape measure which has a laser rangefinder as well (it has a built-in area, volume & right angle triangle pytagoras calculator for squares & rectangles and measures in metric and even feet in fractions), it's pricey but it's designed for the markings not to fade coz' there are raised dimples (like a Teflon cookware) to resist scratches and will last a lifetime: Mileseey DT20 (this also eliminates the guessing when the measurement has fractions because as you extend the tape measure, the LCD displays the exacts measurement similar to a digital caliper- I recommend the all metal General brand digital caliper which can be had locally at Panda Construction Supply Incorporated near SM Sta. Mesa or pandatools on Google. General only not the Groz-General or Groz only one). The tape measure's metal is the best, better than my old Stanley.
(you may be tempted to buy the lower models of the Mileseey but I have the lower model I wish I bought the DT20). It's available on popular local online shopping sites that has delivery. You may be tempted to buy similar but different brands, it's best not to do that, Mileseey has the best laser measurement precision, perfect for really long measurements like wall to wall or floor to ceiling.
4) recommending stainless bracing for for your pipes (I've tried zip ties too, it'll break the pipe overtime, it has to be stainless metal bracings and is solid as a rock), perhaps the ones near your floor, create another angle so it touches your wall, the top part, the one with the valve, hire a welding machine weld stainless steel metal or rod so you you can brace that part with stainless steel bracing

Did you mean, "How HIGH should the water tank be for a 1-storey house?" If so, the water tank (as a rule of thumb) must always be higher than any of your pipelines. This is why for commercial buildings, water tanks are commonly installed on the roof deck. Water will always go down and take the path of least resistance. As for my zip ties, they are still intact even after 3 years (and I don't need to worry about corrosion). Thanks for the measuring tape tip -- I have bought 2 new ones long ago :)
Nice kaayo bai daghan ta makat onan

Hi sir kaya ba ng float valve pagbumababa ang tubig ng 1meter?
I dont understand what you mean. Pls elaborate.
Thank you, I am Canadian my wife's water pressure to fill her washing machine is terrible. I tried to explain to her about a raised tank which would always be full and therefore good pressure, she never understood me till I showed her your video then she said "Oh I want that" haha thank you for showing and explaining in a way I could not😁
Nice! Get her one asap 👍👍👍
@@HanDIYman007 yes water pressure here in bacolod Philippines terrible😁
HanDIYman 00 verry informative sir..can i stay ur channel?
thank you for the tips sir.
New subscriber here.
do you have diagram of your water tank pipeline? thanks
There's a scene in the video where I traced very quickly the tank pipeline.
@@HanDIYman007 is your water tank use motor or natural gravity flow? do u use check valve?
@@vernonleondalleflores654 just gravity, Please watch the video in full, it's all explained and shown there :)
Where can i buy the float valve handiyman?
Links in the description 😉
This was actually really interesting! Great video!
I’m 😊I Kong
Love your video. Love how you talk plus you provided captions. Anyway, does your tank have a lid or does it stay open like that? Because if you ask me, it's prone to contamination and will breed mosquitoes.
Yes, we do cover it. I didn't bother showing it because it wasn't the subject of the video. Thanks!
Exactly what I was looking for! Looks like video was uploaded 3 years ago. Is it still working good for you? Thank you!!
Yes it does!
Nice one, sir! 👍
Where to buy that float valve?
Links in description or from your local hardware store
Sir you can use pipe cutter for clean cut and solvent applicator brush or ball.
hi i want float valve for my thermosiphon system. I bought baloon valve and waller code valve. Both did't work. Suggest me good water level valve plz
9:50 And thats why you never never close valves fast! Always slowly! It can and will break your pipe if its big enough (really big pipes have a type of valve that avoid that)
jet pump or water pump dn po ba gamit nyu papunta sa tank?
yung ordinary pipeline lang po galing sa Manila Water. We don't have a jet pump or water pump.
ah ganun po ba..pero pwde din po gawin yan sa mga pump po?bali dalawang switch pressure switch at float valve?
Kung yung water tank mo is pressurized (enclosed), yung pressure switch na dapat ang mag stop nung water (by cutting power from your pump motor) pag na reach na yung set pressure inside the tank. Pero if your water tank is open like ours, then the float valve is your solution.
thank you po sa idea!Godbless!
@@HanDIYman007 Kung open tank tapos naka water pump pwede rin?
Hm?
velves
see those faucet droplets at 7:00, a turnoff for the handyman. thanks for this video though.
Nice vedeo..Thank you for sharing.i learn a LOT.I LIKE HOW YOU SHOW IT.😊
Excellent 👌.. Thank you.
Hi Question 1. is that fit to the Blue drum here philippines..and where did you buy that Float valve wanted to buy after i watched your video. thanks
Hi Mark! The float valve will work with the "blue drums" here in the Philippines -- you'll just need to make a hole just below the brim of the drum for the valve to fit through. I bought the float valve from Lazada. You can find the link in the "Products | Tools" section in the Description.
@@HanDIYman007 thank you sir much appreaciated! God bless more videos i'm your now subscriber

Awesome...👍👍👍👌👌👌
Thank you Peter!
Informative may nalaman ako dahil sa video na ito
:)
Haha I love his humour and I learnt a lot
Thank you!
Great job sir.great idea keep sharing video like this...
this will fill the tank as intended when the gate valve under the tank is closed. when the gate valve under the tank is open it will overflow with water coming back in thru that gate valve. adding a check valve between the gate valve and the tee connector will prevent this overflow :)
Hey Joey, you raise a very good point because when we leave the gate valve under the tank open when there's water coming from the main line, the pressure pushes water back through that same open gate valve under tank. This is why we only open the gate valve whenever water supply is interrupted from the main line and close it when there's normal water supply. By adding a check valve between the gate valve and the t-connector under the tank, it will make the entire system truly automatic (i.e. we will not need to manually open/close the gate valve regardless if there's water interruption or not). Great idea! I will make a video on this soon.
@@HanDIYman007 btw, adding another check valve on the main line going-in will prevent your tank from supplying water to the whole neighborhood :)
@@HanDIYman007 Hi. I, too, have the same issue about overflowing. Do you have an update video on how to install the check valve between the gate valve and the tee connector?
