Automatic Water-Level Control for Ponds, Pools & Tanks

The Long Arm Float Valve Kit is a simple, fail-safe way to keep your pond, pool, or water tank from overflowing while it fills. As the water level rises, the float lifts and gradually shuts off the incoming flow—so you never have to stand watch over a hose again. Built with brass arms and joints for long-term durability, it's a smart addition to any backyard water feature. Pair it with other pond care products to keep your water feature clean, full, and thriving.

This kit includes everything needed for a full hose-bib installation: the float valve with nut and washer, a galvanized metal mounting bracket, a hose bib adapter, two brass compression ferrules, two plastic sleeves, two brass inserts, and 10 feet of poly tubing. The bracket anchors under a rock at the pond's edge, and the water level is easily fine-tuned by loosening the thumb screw and raising or lowering the float arm. Backed by a 30-day manufacturer warranty. Note: This product carries a California Proposition 65 warning for lead exposure—see the compatibility box below for details.

Why Choose the Long Arm Float Valve Kit?
  • Prevents Overflow: Automatically shuts off water flow once your pond, pool, or tank reaches the level you set—no more forgotten hoses or flooded yards.
  • Durable Brass Construction: Brass arms and joints stand up to years of outdoor exposure.
  • Complete Installation Kit: Includes the bracket, hose bib adapter, tubing, and fittings needed to connect to a nearby spigot.
  • Easy Water-Level Adjustment: A simple thumb screw lets you raise or lower the float to set your ideal fill level.
  • Backed by a Warranty: Covered by a 30-day manufacturer warranty for peace of mind.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's included in the Long Arm Float Valve Kit?
The kit includes the float valve with nut and washer, a galvanized metal bracket, a hose bib adapter, 2 brass compression ferrules, 2 plastic sleeves, 2 brass inserts, and 10 feet of poly tubing.

This gives you everything needed to connect the float valve to a hose bib within about 10 feet of the pond, pool, or tank.

How do I adjust the water level?
Loosen the thumb screw on the float valve and raise or lower the float arm to set the fill level you want.

Once set, re-tighten the thumb screw so the level holds steady during future fills.

What is this valve made of?
The valve features brass arms and joints for durability, paired with a galvanized metal mounting bracket.

Brass is a common choice for outdoor water valves because it resists corrosion better than many other metals.

Is there a warranty on this product?
Yes, the Long Arm Float Valve Kit is covered by a 30-day manufacturer warranty.

Keep your receipt or order confirmation on hand in case you need to reference it during the warranty period.
