The Antelco eZyvalve 4-Zone Valve Box (DC) completely revolutionizes multi-zone irrigation setup. Instead of manually gluing custom PVC manifolds and struggling to cram individual valves into a dirt-filled hole, this ingenious unit provides a fully pre-assembled, internal manifold housed inside a compact, heavy-duty box.
Equipped with four 9V DC latching solenoids, it is designed specifically for remote locations, raised bed gardens, or nurseries where hardwired electrical power is unavailable. Simply connect it to a multi-station battery-operated controller, attach your water source to the single 3/4" inlet, and instantly distribute water to four independent zones. Its UV-stabilized, sealed construction even allows you the flexibility of mounting it above ground or burying it flush with your landscaping.

Follow these simple steps to install your pre-assembled multi-zone box.
Step 1: Position the Box
Decide if you are installing the box above ground or below grade. If burying, dig a hole that allows the textured, non-slip lid to sit perfectly flush with the surrounding soil to prevent tripping hazards.
Step 2: Connect the Water Supply
Wrap Teflon tape around the single 3/4" MPT inlet on the box. Use a 3/4" Female Pipe Thread (FPT) adapter to connect your pressurized water source to this main inlet.
Step 3: Connect the Zones
Using 3/4" FPT adapters, connect your outgoing drip or micro-sprinkler mainlines to the four individual 3/4" MPT outlets on the side of the box.
Step 4: Wire to the Controller
Pass the solenoid wires through the provided cable seal. Splice the wires to your multi-station DC battery-operated controller using the included waterproof wire connectors. Ensure each valve is assigned to the correct station on the timer.
Can I connect this to a standard plug-in irrigation timer?
No, this model features 9V DC latching solenoids. It must be wired to a multi-station, battery-operated controller. Connecting it to a standard 24V AC wall timer will permanently damage the solenoids.
Do I need to build a custom PVC manifold for these valves?
No custom plumbing is required. The eZyvalve features a completely internal, pre-assembled manifold that feeds all four distinct zones. Just connect your main water line to the inlet and run your zone lines from the outlets.
Can this valve box be installed above ground?
Yes, the eZyvalve is manufactured with high-strength, UV-stabilized materials and features a sealed, water-resistant lid. It performs exceptionally well whether buried flush with the soil or mounted above grade near your water source.
What size pipe fittings do I need to connect my tubing?
The box features 3/4-inch Male Pipe Thread (MPT) connections for the single inlet and all four outlets. You will need 3/4-inch Female Pipe Thread (FPT) adapters to transition to your irrigation tubing.
Why is the eZyvalve ideal for expanding my spring garden in mid-May?
As mid-May planting peaks, this pre-assembled, battery-operated box allows you to instantly automate four new distinct watering zones—like raised beds and patio pots—without the massive delay of building custom PVC manifolds or trenching electrical wire before summer.
