The Best Shower Valve Options of 2023

Nov 13, 2023

Kids forgetting to turn off an outdoor shower can turn into a disaster for the wallet, and it's especially bad for those on well water or living under drought conditions. This stand-alone EZ-Flo self-closing shower valve installs directly in line with an existing shower head and will operate as long as there is tension on the pull chain. After releasing the chain, it shuts off and conserves water, making it ideal for homes in areas prone to drought or with older well systems.

Brass construction and chrome finish make it a durable choice for outdoor applications. The 0.5-inch inlet and outlet make it a direct installation for most water-supply pipe fittings.

Pro tip: Be sure to drain the outdoor shower's pipes before winter sets in. Install a catch to hold the pull chain open as well, to lessen the chances of a pipe bursting.
