Usually in back, but it may not be a valve on the machine itself. Look for a faucet with a hose running to the machine. If you are referring to the internal valve that turns the water on and off when the machine is cycling, that varies with the make and model of the machine.

Between the backflow preventer or check valve and the inline valves or "manifold".

Why is the lawn sprinkler head leaks water when the main water valve is shut off?

After a main water valve is closed the system's PVC pipes are still full of water and will drain to the lowest sprinkler head until the system is empty.


Why is my sprinkler system making a hammering noise while the water is running while the house does not and they share the incoming water line but the sprinkler system branches off through a valve?

Obviously, the branch-off for your sprinkler system has a bowwevel or some sort of virus like that.............so.......you should get that checked out.


What is a Fire Sprinkler alarm valve?

Some fire sprinkler systems have a valve for testing the water-flow alarm by allowing water to flow to the alarm, or through the alarm-sensing pipe, without activating any sprinklers in the rest of the system.


What's the difference between a wet and dry fire sprinkler system?

The difference is what the pipes normally contain while standing by for a fire.A wet sprinkler system has pressurized water inside the system 24/7 for extinguishing a fire when any sprinkler head gets hot enough to open.A dry sprinkler system has pressurized air or nitrogen inside the piping. This keeps a dry-valve closed, and water out of the system. When a sprinkler fuses (opens), it allows the air to escape; then the dry valve opens and allows water to enter the system. Wherever there is an opened sprinkler, water will flow through it and put out the fire.Dry systems are used in areas where water filled piping could freeze, such as unheated warehouses, freezers, unheated buildings, etc.Additional precautions can also be taken to avoid accidental flooding when a sprinkler head is damaged. For example, a dry-valve controller may wait for a signal from a fire alarm panel before turning on the water.


Should fusible link sprinklers be used in a deluge system?

No, sprinklers in a deluge system are "open"; no valve in the sprinkler, and an automatic valve turns on the water to all open sprinklers when a fire condition is detected.


What is a sprinkler manifold?

A sprinkler or "valve" manifold is the heart of a sprinkler system. The water source (hose faucet, sprinkler main line, etc.) feeds into the manifold and then the valves in the manifold redirect water to different watering areas. Its reason for being is that most water sources have insufficient pressure and flow to water all areas at the same time, so the manifold allows watering to be divided into smaller areas or "zones". A simple way to visualize a sprinkler manifold is as a small letter "m" in which the water source connects into the top of the "m" and then a valve in each of the legs opens and closes to allow water to flow to each zone. Valves in a sprinkler manifold may be controlled either manually or automatically using a sprinkler timer or "controller" which is the brains of an automatic sprinkler system.


When checking a sprinkler system a security officer should do what?

ensure valve is closed


How does a sprinkler system work?

A sprinkler system works by pushing water through a hose or underground water pipes and releasing the water through a sprinkler nozzle. These can be used manually or automatically through electronic systems.


What does deluge mean in a fire sprinkler system?

A deluge fire sprinkler system, unlike most ordinary systems, mean that the sprinkler heads do not have individual heat-sensitive valves. The sprinkler heads in a deluge system have no valves of their own, meaning they are always open and water will be sprayed out of them when the supply valve is turned on. There are limited uses for deluge systems, such as in a tire storage warehouse where it is important to put out a fire quickly and the massive flow of water will not cause major damage.


What are wet and dry risers sprinklers?

a wet syestem always has water behind the head it is charged with water at all times all the pipeing is water.. wet system usually used in doors a dry system has a diffrent type of valve allowing a clapper inside the valve to have water from the underground being held back by air in which the system is charged with air until the valve trips (usually sprinkler being popped or very low air pressure) so the sprinkler system it self on a dry valve contains air until tripped then water flowes when tripped usually used outside parking garages and canopys or where very cold


What is in the piping of a dry sprinkler system?

Normally it is filled with compressed air. A dry sprinkler system is used in areas exposed to temperatures that would freeze water. When a fire is sensed the soft metal link of a sprinkler head melts , releases the compressed air which in turn opens a valve to a fire main allowing the system to flood with water and extinguish the fire. Parking ramps in the northern US have dry systems, for example, because of the weather.
