Plumbing in hydroponics: What you need to know about valves

The essential function of hydroponic valves is to start, stop, and control the flow of water. The type of valve you choose will be based on the function you’d like it to perform.

Valves will be a key element in your system whether it’s hydroponic or aquaponic. They allow the isolation of different parts of your system and give you a lot of versatility for directing water flow. Valves also control the direction of the flow and the intensity at which water passes through the system.

Sean will introduce you to the two types of hydroponic valves that they use, how they work and what their purpose is, and then show you a few examples from our ZipFarm.
