Is this valve alright to modify?

[BFC]

Hey,

Im looking at sprinkler valves and I can get this valve : http://www.sprinklersupplystore.com/product-p/216b.htm

the Irritrol 216b 1 1/2in

can it be modified to open with a blowgun or pilot valve? or is it a no go?

thanks

Yep those are fine but i'm sure you could find something cheaper.

I've never seen a sprinkler that cannot bet modded, but I would go for a different one anyway. While you probably could modify this one, try to find a cheaper and simpler one. Thats what I think.

I have about a dozen of those left over from decommissioning my lawn sprinklers. Those are excellent valves. They're tough, open fast and full but, they are expensive.

Man allot the valves on that site are extremly expensive. Does anyone else think that the valves are overpriced?

I got my sprinkler valve from Amazon.com for about $15.
