Angled Frost-Resistant Valve UN ZC34 3/4" x 1" (1 pc)

The Angled Frost-Resistant Valve UN ZC34 3/4" x 1" is a single-piece angled shut-off valve designed for cold-climate plumbing and heating installations. Constructed to reduce the risk of freezing in exposed water or heating lines, this valve provides a reliable point for flow control, maintenance shut-off and seasonal drainage. The compact angled body and frost-resistant design make it appropriate for both indoor and sheltered outdoor installations where freeze protection is required.

Advantages

This angled frost-resistant valve offers sturdy flow control with a compact, space-saving profile and an angled outlet for convenient piping runs. Its frost-resistant feature helps prevent water from remaining in the valve body in low temperatures, reducing the chance of damage during freezing conditions. The valve is supplied as a single unit for straightforward replacement or new installations and is compatible with standard 3/4" and 1" connection sizes used in many domestic and light commercial systems.

Suitable for

• Cold-climate domestic water supply lines
• Heating system branch lines and radiator shut-off points
• Seasonal drainage points to prevent pipe freeze damage
• Retrofit or replacement where angled connection is required

Key specifications

• Connection sizes: 3/4" x 1" (angled configuration)
• Valve type: angled shut-off with frost-resistant design
• Supply: single piece
• Intended installation: plumbing and heating lines exposed to cold
• Typical materials: corrosion-resistant metals suitable for water and heating systems

How to use

Install the valve in the service line according to local plumbing codes, ensuring correct orientation of the angled outlet for the intended piping layout. Use appropriate thread sealant or fittings compatible with the system material to create a secure, leak-free connection. Operate the valve by fully opening or closing as required for flow control, maintenance, or seasonal drainage. When preparing systems for freezing conditions, close and drain the valve and connected section following standard servicing procedures.

Usage recommendations

Inspect threaded connections after installation and perform routine checks before winter to confirm the valve operates freely and there are no leaks. For exposed installations, provide additional insulation or shelter where practical to enhance freeze protection and prolong service life.
