Great video! Concise and to the point. Very helpful, thanks so much!
Thank you so much!!! We were also able to find the parts at our local Lowe’s but we weren’t 100% sure of installation so your video was extremely helpful. Very clear and easy to follow!
Thanks for your compliments :-)
Thanks for the nice and clear instructions, exactly what I needed, great video
Still waiting for my Febco 765-1 to arrive from Amazon, they are backed up, not avail anywhere, crazy! But your video is useful, I will follow your instruction, thanks for creating this instruction!
Straight up "do it yourselfer" rt here 😂 from start to finish. Callin it whatever it looks like at the moment. I.e. boppit thingy. 😂
I’m about to try this, wish me luck
mine is blowing the entire assembly poppet assembly, threads and all, out with a rush of water. Not after I turn the water back on, but about half an hour later. The funny thing is the sprinkler system is off at the control station and source water is turned on. Any suggestions?
Sounds right. The water is rushing out because your backflow valve is broken already. The sprinkler controller controls the water flow 'after' the backflow preventer, so it makes sense that it is not doing anything. The water source is turned on and causing the backflow preventer to rush out water, which is correct. I hope that makes sense. If not pls don't hesitate to ask more question.
@@DIYGEEKTEXAS we replaced the poppet valve with a new one, threaded it in tightly and all. The water kicked on about 30 minutes after we turned all water sources back on. It blew the entire valve (threads and all) out of the pressure vaccum breaker. What would cause that?
What do these things do? My bonnet broke and im not sure if i should be worried
Backflow preventers blocks water to flow back to the supply pipe. It prevents City's or Municipalities water to be contaminated. If you broke your bonnet, it should be leaking water. You have to replace it.
"My old I guess boppet thing that broke" lol
But from blue heron . Their product is American made and available at Home Depot . They r a by far superior product 👍🏻
OK will keep that in mind. Thank you.
I am in Houston my back-flow broken. Anyone have Febco 765-1 bonnet & poppet or know where I can buy one?
Try Ferguson plumbing supply
How do you cut it ? Could you share ?
@Henra Iskandar I was born in Jakarta, Indonesia, are you from Indonesia? I am not sure I understand your question, do you mean how I cut the broken poppet to remove the damaged poppet? I think I just use a plier and crack it or maybe I cut it a little bit with a hack saw (make sure you don't cut any of the bonnet - the steel housing). Thanks for watching!
@@DIYGEEKTEXAS It's a small world :) I am not able to take the screw it out and plan to cut it out. Just afraid it may damage the housing. Looking for a video that someone actually cut it out
Can u please tell me where can I buy the replacement parts? and how can I find out is there a 1" or 1/2" ? Thks!
I bought from Amazon, here is the link amzn.to/2EhPccY
Thank you for your replies! but my top caps ...( when it's broke, my flew away, can't find its 😡) , so can i buy that from amazon too ? what's the name?please !
the top cap is called the "febco 765-1 CANOPY". I tried to find on amazon, but for some reason they don't sell there at good price amzn.to/2qqeoF9 but I found some at other online store like this one backflowpartshouston.com/collections/febco-765/products/brass-canopy-kit-765-1to-1-1-4-300089
Hey CZcams!
thank you so much!
I bought mine from Lowes - the sales guy actually told me about the kit instead of letting me buy a new valve...
