Angle valve with filter kfa² 1/2" x 1/2" model 707-010-15

Angle valve with filter kfa² 1/2" x 1/2" model 707-010-15 is an angled shut-off fitting designed for controlling water flow on residential supply lines while protecting downstream fixtures from debris. The valve integrates a mesh filter inside the body to retain particles and prevent blockages in taps, toilets and appliances. Its 1/2" x 1/2" threaded connections suit standard plumbing installations and allow straightforward isolation of sections for maintenance or replacement.

Advantages

The integrated mesh filter reduces the risk of sediment-related damage to fixtures and helps maintain consistent water flow. The angled design provides compact installation where space is limited and facilitates connection to appliances and taps. The shut-off mechanism enables quick isolation of a supply line for servicing without shutting off the main water supply.

Suitable for

• Supply lines to bathroom and kitchen taps
• Connection to toilets and bidets
• Feeding household appliances such as dishwashers and washing machines
• Local isolation of plumbing fixtures for maintenance or replacement

Key specifications

• Connection size: 1/2" x 1/2" (threaded)
• Type: angled shut-off valve with integrated mesh filter
• Material: corrosion-resistant metal body (manufacturer specification)
• Function: manual shut-off and debris filtration
• Typical installation: inline on cold or hot water supply branch

How to use

Install the angled valve in the supply branch using appropriate sealing on the threaded connections and tighten to manufacturer torque recommendations. Ensure the filter side faces the incoming supply so debris is captured before the downstream fixture. To isolate the fixture, turn the valve handle or knob to the closed position; open slowly to restore flow and check for leaks. Periodically remove the valve cap or access point to inspect and clean the mesh filter according to water quality and sediment levels.

Usage recommendations

For reliable operation, flush the supply line before installation to reduce initial debris. Inspect and clean the mesh filter at regular intervals, especially in areas with hard water or sediment. Use appropriate thread sealant or tape when connecting; follow local plumbing codes and, if unsure, consult a qualified installer for correct installation and maintenance.
