Regulators

To make your selection easier, our website distinguishes between air control valves and switching valves that regulate the intensity of the massage in the jets, and water control valves, which are more commonly associated with decorative waterfalls or fountains. Each type has its own function, and depending on what you want, you will need a different type of valve.

You can easily differentiate the various types of valves based on the number of connected pipes.

Air Control Valves (1 Pipe)

These are straight with one outlet and operate using the Venturi effect. Outside air is drawn in to mix with the water. The valves control how much air flows into the jets, thus affecting the intensity of the massage. The air control valves on our website connect to pipes with a diameter of 1 inch or less.

Water Control Valves (2 Pipes)

These have a 90° elbow with an inlet and outlet, most commonly associated with waterfalls and fountains, allowing you to control their intensity. They also regulate the flow of water into the jets when there are few of them. Most water control valves sold on our website connect to pipes with a diameter of 1 inch or less. They do not support sufficiently high pressure to drive a lot of jets. For that, we recommend using a switching valve.

Switching Valves (3 Pipes)

As their name suggests, these T-shaped valves with one inlet and two outlets direct the flow of water towards a selected area (specific seat, multiple seats, etc., it's up to you) and regulate the intensity of the water flowing out of the massage jets. The switching valves we sell typically connect to 1 or 2-inch pipes.
