    Water line valve
    I am running a water line from my shop to a small horse barn. I want to put 3 lines with Iowa type hydrants on the line . 1 outside the barn 1 inside the barn and 1 to a water trough. I want to put a valve on each line is there a good way to do this?


    Thank you.

    I am not sure what "Iowa Hydrant" is, but I would put one valve at the point were you tee off for the barn. With this valve, you will be able to shut off water for the entire barn, including all three hydrants. Then, I would install dedicated shut off valve by each hydrant so you can turn them off individually as needed.

    Hope that helps
