## Questions & Answers

**Q: How much pressure does it take to close the valve?**
A: The valve is controlled by a hollow plastic float. It's advisable to use it on the low-pressure cold water inside supply. I use an adapter (with a shutoff) on my washing machine hose. One of those and some icemaker tubing works for me.

**Q: will this work on a master cool window evap model mpc44e?**
A: It' pretty standard float valve so it should work.

**Q: Is this product made in the USA?**
A: I believe so.

**Q: Does tubing have 1/4" id or od?**
A: It's common ice-maker kit size. Quarter inch outside diameter. Use UV rated if it's used outdoors.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked great
*by  on Reviewed in the United States August 24, 2023*

Had a hard time removing old one calcium deposit all over threads took awhile.. Was a Breese to install after old one was taken out and it was brittle .. 👍 Last time I installed one I'm guessing 10 years ago? I'm sure copper is better but more expensive and last longer.. Water makes the plastic brittle and breaks down water release..

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It floats

It floats

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It works flawlessly
*by  on Reviewed in the United States July 8, 2023*

In hindsight, I should have bought one with the metal body, but money was tight. It is difficult to tighten the quarter inch compression nut without turning the body of the float inside the cooler. There's a plastic hex fitting on the inside but it was difficult to get to with wrenches. Long needle nose pliers ended up doing the job though. The float arm is easy to bend into a proper position when there are obstacles (like the pump) in the way. I just installed it three weeks ago so I can't comment on its longevity, but I will update this review if it fails earlier than expected.
