How to Protect Trees and Shrubs: Winter Climate Tips
Jan 29th 2026
The High Flow Hose Y with Shutoffs is the essential tool for expanding your outdoor faucet's potential. Whether you choose the impact-resistant Plastic (HYVHPL) or the industrial-grade Aluminum (HYVAL) model, this splitter allows you to run two independent lines from a single spigot. It is the perfect solution for multitasking gardeners who need to operate a dedicated water timer on one side while keeping a garden hose free for hand watering on the other.
Unlike restrictive hardware store splitters, these units are engineered with larger internal bores to deliver up to 45% more water flow. This makes them some of our most efficient irrigation fittings, ensuring that your sprinklers and drip systems receive the full volume and pressure they need to operate correctly.
Compare the material options to find the right fit for your system.

Step 1: Check the Washer
Before installing, verify that the rubber hose washer is seated flat inside the swivel inlet. This is critical for a leak-free seal.
Step 2: Connect to Spigot
Thread the swivel collar onto your hose bibb. Hand-tighten only. Do not use pliers or a wrench on the plastic collar, as this may crack the fitting.
Step 3: Attach Components
Screw your garden hose or pressure regulator onto the male outlets. Open the specific valve lever to start flow to that zone.
Pro-Tip: Winterization
To prevent freeze damage, always remove the Y-valve from the spigot during winter months. Drain all water from the internal ball valves to ensure longevity.
