Questions & Answers

The Wilkins 720 pressure vacuum breaker differs from the Wilkins 420 pressure vacuum breaker in how it works?

Clearly, I saw the model number 720 on the side of my house and tried to figure out how to get it. 420 should be used if that's what is required. My trial and error method was based on the vague instructions. The edges are razor sharp, so take

The spring portion must be removed and replaced. How can you do that?

Using needle nose pliers, grip the top of the button, push it down just a little, turn it to the left and pull up, then turn it up and put it in the opposite side

Is there an instruction video for this anywhere that shows it being easier than replacing the vacuum breaker?

Replace the part rather than the whole unit since it would be much simpler and faster. It is always a good idea to check in with the manufacturer to see if the kit will take care of your problem. Phone 855

In the kit there is a gel-like material of some description. What is it? What is the purpose of applying it to the O-Drop Are you ringing?

The repair kit I received did not include a gel-like material There was no moisture present in any of the included parts. As a rubber o-ring is made of rubber I would have used lubricant if there was a lubricant in the kit

Although the valve is expensive for what you get, if you replace the whole valve, you still save money
5/5

I noticed that my pressure breaker valve was leaking and decided to replace it Rebuilding it was possible with a rebuild kit, as I remembered. After checking several websites including Sprinkler World, I decided to purchase the kit from Amazon because it was the cheapest.

The kit comes with a sheet of paper for installation / maintenance / testing of the valve, but not for the rebuild kit itself. did, however, provide an exploded view of all the components that make up the valve, except for the canopy & stem. It came with all the necessary screws and fasteners. As a summary of the steps I took, here are mine Remove the poppet assembly (it's all part of one)
6) Remove the washer
7) The O-ring There is a channel where the ring sits. The X-ray machine I used was an X-ray To pry the old O off, you need an ACT knife * Remove the ring 8) Remove the spring To remove it, I compressed and turned it to make it free)
9) Remove the Spider Assembly
10) Use a cloth to wick up water and inspect the valve

Now it's time to install the rebuild kit components Install the Spider Valve

2) Install the Spring (I had to turn it a bit and compress it at the large end in order for it to fully seat under the O-ring). Cutting the O-ring channel4) Cut the ring channel 5) Cut the ring Take a lubricant and squeeze it out completely onto your fingers, then rub it on the ring Put lots of grease all over the O-ring and tighten it tightly 4) Install the O-ring *Bring the ring into the channel*5) Insert the Dis and the Dis Receiver The Big Plastic Washer That Sits On The O-ring 6) I had extra grease, so I lubricated the underside of the big plastic washer that sits on the O-ring Install the plastic washer on top of the O-ring (greasy side down) Ring)*8) Thread the bonnet and check that the shaft of the disc fits the axle You should find the poppet assembly in the center of the bonnet. 9) Hand tighten the bonnet. 10) Install the canopy and the three Once all are in place, tighten the three bolts together***Return the water to the faucet. You can let a little water ooze out of the breaker valve initially, but wipe it away from the piping surrounding it and monitor it. When I ran my 5K, I received a 5" This was an inspection of one of the sprinkler lines to make sure the valve was not leaking. There is no need to spend more than 15 minutes on the whole procedure It will take 20 minutes (if that's what it takes).

I found a video on how to rebuild a Zurn 720- however I do not have the skills and knowledge to do so Located in the vacuum chamber of a pressure Initially, I was tempted to try it since it looked easy enough, and I think it may have resolved the chattering problem I experienced when my alarm It's true you can have someone test a system for $100, but I don't see why
5/5

I was worried that I would have to spend $500 to test it when I could replace it for half the price. The kit was perfect it included all Usually I repair my neighbors in less time (I am sure I can re-build their windows in less time) if I did not take the brass bonnet to the basement to clean it up. It seems like I have no problems with back up into my domestic water system thanks to my irrigation system.

As such, getting 10 years between rebuilds is a good thing for me
5/5

Despite the fact that the kit came complete, all the parts appeared very well made, and the instructions were clear and The big spring is a bit difficult to insert so that it lies under the lip at the top, so be sure to follow the directions and diagram and install it properly. A big spring will not be found under the lip if the top brass part of the housing cannot be screwed down flush with it. As some of the reviews have indicated, there is a little difficulty installing the app. Our house has been in our family for 20 years, and this is the second time I had to have the kit replaced. As such, getting 10 years between rebuilds is a good thing for me.

I had no difficulty installing it and the instructions were very clear
5/5

My experience with replacing or installing something like this was very limited. Upon hearing how much my plumber was going to charge $310 to repair the leak, I decided to research some options. YouTube video shown me that it's a pretty simple fix for a pretty low cost, and it doesn't require a lot of The entire process took me about 20 minutes, I put the pieces in, tested, and voila, it worked. I only had to pay $42 for this. It would have been nice to have purchased only one, but this pack includes I guess I'm ready for the next round.

The leaky thingy has been fixed! The plumber is happy, exactly what he wanted! I found the outdoor tap to be leaking The video I watched on YouTube told me I needed to replace the parts inside this pressure relief valve
5/5

Exactly what I needed, and it was easy to install There are no leaky leakys now, everything is working as it should! It would be a good idea to get this repair kit if you have a leaky pressure thingy that takes it. It works great!.

Installs in a few minutes
5/5

The sprinkler system in my house froze during the cold snap in Texas. Thank goodness it was only the bell that was damaged. This kit allowed me to rebuild my guitar with little to no hassle. Installs in a flash.

The exact thing I was searching for
5/5

thought I would take a moment to leave this company and this item a very positive review. As usual, I received it before it should have arrived and it was perfect for me. It was easy to fix my back flow and I haven't had any leaks since I did it. It was a simple and quick process, and it took about 15 minutes for me. I did not check how much an irrigation specialist or plumber would charge for it, but I suspect it would be about $100. Thank you very much for offering this item at such a competitive price. My best wishes.
