Overview

The listing is for Watts 007-040 40mm 1 1/2" DCV double check valve backflow preventer range in 3 configuration variants

- Device Only (007-040)

- Kits with 2 Unions, Strainer & 2 Lockable Ball Valves (007-040-ULBS)

The Watts double check valve DCV backflow preventers are designed to protect portable drinking water in the mains supplies from cross-connections from water applications such as irrigation, fireline or industrial processing. The Watts DCV is compatible with other popular brands such as Fabco, Tyco, Wilkins and Conbraco Apollo.

The use of the Watts double check valves DCV back flow preventer must be in accordance with the Australian national plumbing codes and local plumbing requirements, who shall deem the applications as non-health hazardous in nature. The local authorities will have the jurisdiction regarding the vertical orientation, frequency of testing or any other requirements. 

In other situations where the cross-connections contain hazardous chemicals, such as swimming pools or sewage processing plants, the potential contamination can be lethal or dangerous. The double check valve DCV backflow preventer may be regarded as insufficient protections by the plumbing authorities. In this case, a RPZ reduced pressure zone backflow preventer must be used instead. A RPZ reduced pressure zone backflow preventer's design differs from the DCV by featuring an additional differential release valve as a mechanical fail-safe device which will open and dump contaminated water to isolate the mains water supply. 

A RPZ is usually significantly more expensive than the equivalent DCV counterparts, even though they may look very similar. Customers need to check with the local plumbing authority to ensure the correct backflow preventers are employed for the jobs. 

All Plumbing Online stocks and supplies both Watts DCV and RPZ in full range of sizes and kits configurations. Just ask me any further questions if still unsure between DCVs and RPZs. All Watts DCV and RPZ are Watermark approved and are one of the most popular kits in Australian market due to its reputations and values for money.

It’s really pretty decent except for one thing.
Color: Grey, Size: 34" - 4 Panel, Color: Grey, Size: 34" - 4 Panel
I bought two of these for my basement and they do look great. They were easy to assemble and I’m happy with them. The problem is that the stitching on the fabric panels are almost the size of a machine basting stitch (which for non sewers means large temporary stitches). Because the panels are tight by design, the stitches had already started to come undone before I could finish assembling everything. Fortunately I can sew and I reinforced all the panels. I had to take the first ones back off the poles to do them but I did the second set before assembling. It’s really not a bad product for the money. It’s quality fabric and the design itself looks great. The stitching looks fine but it’s just not substantial enough for the purpose it is supposed to serve. I can’t imagine why it be sewn so insufficiently. I was able to resolve my issue because I can sew. I wasn’t planning on sewing nor did I really have the time. I could have made it myself but I didn’t want to and that is why I purchased this. I ended up using valuable time. The really unfortunate thing is, I have no other complaints. This is a manufacturing problem.

Inexpensive walls.

We had a hot request for a workstation in the warehouse with some privacy. These have worked great. Easy to assemble. They are lightweight and stable. This was an inexpensive solution that looks professional. Our client loved it.

Dont wait! Assemble right away! Just in case you need to return it.
Color: Black, Size: 22" - 4 Panel
Ok, I like the idea of this but the assembly is frustrating. One side lined up perfectly with the holes however, the small bars that connect the screen to base is not lining up. I think it's do the fabric the screen or divider is made of. It's not stretchy. I brought this months ago and just opened it today. I'm upset and don't even think returning it is possible. If the material was a bit longer or stretchy to give a little room to work with this divider would be great. However, I'm not sure what I can use it for since I'm unable to attach it to the bottom. Beware! Don't wait like me. Tip for the manufacturer. Next time invest in Velcro dividers so the fabric can be adjusted with ease. Literally if I take the screen off the frame aligns perfectly. However, it defeats its purpose of privacy. I might buy some material myself and create a more flexible divider. Or I'll buy Velcro myself and attach to the bottom. I don't know yet.

Smooth, Stable, and Perfect for Flexible Spaces
Size: 88''W-4 Panel, Color: Grey, Size: 88''W-4 Panel, Color: Grey
This room divider is incredibly easy to move thanks to its industrial-grade silent casters. It glides smoothly across different floor types with just one hand and without any noise, while the built-in wheel locks keep it firmly in place once positioned, no slipping or unwanted movement. The base with reinforced steel feet adds impressive stability, preventing wobbling even in busy or high-traffic areas. I also love the foldable design, which makes storage effortless when it’s not in use. It folds down compactly and fits neatly into small spaces. I gave only 4 stars because I'm not crazy about the color of the fabric. Otherwise this is a very functional way to separate areas.
