🔀 LASCO 17-1511 1/4-Inch Compression Brass Needle Valve - Straight, Ideal for 1/4-Inch Compression Connections Review

A very useful addition to our whole home humidifier range. Allows you to perfectly regulate the amount of water entering the humidifier pad.

Good quality needle valve that I use in my RO machine to make maple syrup. This allows me to fine-tune the pressure in the lines.

This valve provides an easy way to add shut-off to a 1/4 inch line. However, if you only want a check valve, there is a version that uses a quarter turn butterfly valve that I would recommend purchasing instead. The advantage of this model is that you can partially open and close it, which makes it particularly suitable for situations where you may need to adjust the flow of water in the pipe.

My water supplier tracks my consumption and makes it available to me online. They say my flow is never less than 3 gallons per minute. Even when I sleep! I will try
