Installed and working as a semi automatic draining system on my main aquarium .Their are no installation instructions so wasn't sure how the screw threads worked with the hose connected but managed to find a youtube video showing you leave them attatched , push warmed hose onto ends then screw nuts back down onto hose , creating a lock , which keeps the 12/16 mm hose from coming off !Like most eheim products its well made but overpriced !The quick unscrew disconnect works very well for me .I have a lily pipe permanently attached to my tank/some hose/this quick disconnect tap fot semi automatic water drainage .Would buy again .Can recommend .This is my honest opinion .I believe it's important to leave a review of an item ,

Received promptly. Had one of these already. They are just perfect for hoses that you want to attach or disconnect regularly. I use mine for water changes via my external filter hose. Makes life so much easier having the pump discharge water down the sink and refilling directly from the tap rather than carrying buckets around. when taps are turned off, pipes disconnect with barely a drop of water spill and i have never had a leak from the taps.

works perfectly on the 12/16mm hose. You turn the taps at both ends then unscrew the retaining nut and the thing just pulls apart with a small amount of drips from each end so use a towel if you have something you need to keep dry underneath it. I mean its a bit expensive but frankly you cant be without this and it should really come with the ehiem filters from the start. Anyways, it works pretty much perfectly.

Fantastic product, easy to put on, very good quality of valves, easy to operate, no leaks. Good value for Money. Used that before for years and never had any issues with this so very happy customer again. Very easy to create special additional loop to add for example temporarily UV lamp to the system or Nitrate filters etc..... or just makes life easier when disconnecting external filters.

Makes life so much easier as I can turn off 4 taps on the inlet and outlet pipes and remove the external filter for cleaning without getting water everywhere and without losing the water from the pipes. When the filter is put back in place the water in the pipes ensures the filter fills effortlessly and primes the pump (just make sure inlet and outlet in tank are both submerged.

Made in Germany.Even when you have a shut off in your filter, these things are great.Just turn off the filter, shut off the upper tap, shut off the lower tap, disconnect the pair and no leakage.They are also very useful for switching inlet or outlet pipes with no fuss.And... you can use them to regulate flow (despite what anyone says).

As with all Eheim products, these work perfectly. They really make it much easier to establish the siphon when you're setting up your filter, and will hold water in the hoses while you do filter maintenance so that you don't have to re-establish the siphon again. They're quick and easy to disconnect, and only a few drops of water escape.

This valve is such a useful piece of kit, two required for inlet and return flow. It makes changing the filter such an easy job by isolating it from all the pipework without any leaks. Also it allows the pipework to retain its water so when its reconnected there is no need to suck any trapped air in the circuit.Great quality product.

There’s no getting away from it, these are expensive. But, they are worth the money. Nice and easy way to isolate the flow to and from the filter. I use them to isolate a pre-filter before the main unit and the double taps work wonders for taking the pre-filter out of line for cleaning. Excellent product.

Nice taps. Better design than the early ones as the actuator on these is shaped like a lever so it is easier to turn on and off other than that they are a direct replacement for the older type if you have them.

it has 2 valves on it and you can seperate the pipes on external filter clean filter foam media put back together open valves switch on an all is normal no air locks bubbles at all

Does the job for a quick release on my Eheim external cannister saving any watery mess. Quite a bit expensive though for a plastic item , none the less good quality.

Absolutely essential for the Eheim classic filters as it makes the routine service quick and hassle free. Although bit pricey for couple of plastic taps.

Expensive, but like most Eheim products it is well made and does the job it is designed for efficiently well.Prompt delivery is also a bonus

Sooo much easier and faster to disconnect the filter for cleaning. No leaking noted but remember to lubricate the seals.
