Valves, quick connects, trigger assemblies etc are available at lower prices, but you do get what you pay for, so be careful as there are cheap copies about, that won't last anywhere near as long as the genuine, brass and stainless variety.

Hi
If the K-valve is faulty will that be the cause of drips from the foot off the unit. Drip is getting worse so obvioulsy need to change it if it is this.

The only place a kvalve is likely to leak from is around the plunger,repair kits are available from prochem,new valve about 15 quid as stated above.
If it just needs a new seal it is quicker to fit than to replace the complete valve.
I left my wand in the van one frosty night so had to replace the valve,I didn't realise how stiff the old one was to operate until I changed it.

hi contact details
woodbridge commercial ltd
dorrinton farm
rye hill road
harlow
essex
cm18 7jf
tel 01279 422220
web
www.wcsuk.com
the only problem with the kits is they dont always solve the problem because the plunger is stainless steal the valve is brass so the plunger wears the brass so a new plunger will be no good if the brass has worn it will still leak
yes mayb cheaper but it is still a brass valve just the same as original

Was this price for the New Kingston valve or the old type. The diffrence being that with the new valve it has a hair trigger soft opening and the valve is a longer shape
