The Pride of the Farm VP224K valve is the next generation vale which replaces the VP1 valve series. The VP224K is found in the Poly waterers. Pride of the Farm valve provides simplicity with few moving parts and has the following features.
Easily replaces the VP1 valve and designed with fewer parts to create increased water flow.
NOTE: The fully assembled valve part numbers are VP221, VP223, VP224, VP226, VP227. The last 2 numbers on VP2 match up with the VP1 valve. If your drinker originally took the VP124, order a VP224, etc.
TIP: If you want to replace a VP1 valve with a VP2 valve, the base and assembly nut can remain connected to your water supply line.
