Brilliant product, easy to order, arrived next day and does exactly what it says on the box. Valve looks nice, well made and very quiet when operating. Seen one of these before on a caravan so I wanted the same, but yours is far better than expected. The manual over ride is a great option, can open manually or simply disengage to keep open or closed whilst traveling or for winter storage. Thanks Guys. Glyn.

Excellent product, well made, quick delivery and works perfectly. I did think these were going to be cheap and not any good as they are less than half the price of the JJ ones I buy, but I am proven wrong. Excellent. In fact you might sell more if they were more expensive (only to others though). Thanks I'll be back for more for sure. I'll open the credit account you offered too as I am told I only need to send an official purchase order to do this. Wish other suppliers were as easy to deal with. PS Thanks for the catalogue too.

Excellent quality + fast service, I only purchased 1 for test, absolutely delighted with it, way better motor actuated valve than expected for the money. As agreed will place order for the other 71 units before you realise these are way too cheap.. Thank you.
