At Tap Master Inc., we strive to deliver top-quality water gate valve repair and insertion services by teaming up with professional contractors. Our company has been in the industry for over 30 years, and we have established strong relationships with some of the best contractors in the business.

What Is Valve Insertion?

Valve Insertions allow us to insert a gate valve directly into existing water or wastewater without shutting down the system or disrupting the flow of its contents.

Why Gate Valve Insertions?

  • We supply several different brands of Insertion Valves. A New Gate Valve is installed inline in 2-4 hours, LIVE, “without interruption” of the Service main. You shut the valve when you are ready!  Your new In-Line Gate Valve operates just like a Regular Valve, with 3 turns per inch to open and close, and uses a Standard 2” Valve Key. Available for: Cast Iron, Ductile Iron, ACP, C-900 PVC, PVC, and Steel.
  • Compliant with all AWWA C-515 and C-223 standards, including pertinent structural, functional, operating, and dimensionally important installation criteria.
  • Reduce the need for a shutdown, disruption to flow, or water contamination concerns resulting in time, cost, maintenance, and customer downtime savings.
  • Minimize environmental disruption through less excavation and reduced pipe use, secondary materials, and additional chlorination.

As part of our commitment to providing efficient and cost-effective services, we have carefully selected our valve insertion employees to ensure the highest level of expertise and professionalism. Our employees are trained to handle different types of gate valves, including cast iron, ductile iron, PVC, and steel. They possess extensive knowledge of AWWA standards for water gate valve installation and have many years of experience in the field.

With valve insertion, we can quickly and effortlessly add a gate valve to your water system without causing any disruptions. This means you won’t have to halt operations or worry about contamination concerns, saving you time and money in the process.
