Jobe Valves Vortex Float Valve: High-Flow Water Control You Can Rely On When your operation depends on a tank or trough staying full, the Jobe Valves Vortex Float Valve delivers the flow rate and durability to make it happen. This float-operated valve automatically fills water troughs, tanks, and cisterns, and is the standard model in the acclaimed Vortex series—engineered for the demanding jobs where a standard valve simply can't keep up. Built for High-Flow Performance The float senses the water level directly, opening a pilot valve that in turn drives the main diaphragm for a fast, reliable fill every time. Configured for above-water mounting, the Vortex Float Valve is a strong fit for large cisterns, agricultural troughs, and irrigation reservoirs—anywhere that speed and dependability matter. Key Features: High Flow Rate: Fills large volumes fast, keeping up with heavy livestock or industrial water demand. Compact, Robust, Non-Corrosive Construction: Built to withstand harsh outdoor and industrial conditions for years of reliable service. Adjustable Water Level: Set your ideal fill level with a tool-free adjustable float. Wide Application Range: A strong fit for water storage tanks, animal drinking troughs, and irrigation systems. Selecting the Right Inlet Size Matching your valve's inlet size to your supply plumbing is essential to getting full performance—a 2" valve won't outperform a 3/4" supply line, since flow is always limited by the smallest pipe in the system. Vortex uses a threaded tail rather than the swappable Detach system on Topaz and Megaflow — the valve body threads directly into the arm for extra strength in continuous industrial duty. That doesn't mean you're locked in at purchase, though: a replacement Vortex tail is available in 1.25", 1.5", and 2" sizes, so if your supply plumbing changes later, you can swap the tail instead of replacing the whole valve. Warranty Information Jobe Valves will replace or repair product that fails due to faulty parts or manufacturing for 2 years from dated proof of purchase. Ordering more than one?
