Q: What exactly does a stop and waste valve do?
A: It shuts off water to outdoor plumbing and automatically drains remaining water to prevent freezing.
Q: How deep should the valve be buried?
A: In Midvale, it should be installed 12–18 inches below frost line for maximum freeze protection.
Q: When should I shut it off for winter?
A: Before the first hard freeze—typically late October or early November.
Q: Can I replace it myself?
A: It’s not recommended. Proper depth, sealing, soldering, and pressure testing require a licensed plumber.
Don’t wait until your outdoor plumbing freezes and bursts. Monkey Wrench Plumbing provides fast, reliable stop and waste valve installation and repair to keep your home protected all winter.
