Why Municipalities Incorporate Valve Exercising

Water distribution valves, often left underground and mostly open, are prone to rust, cathodic damage, and getting stuck. They can become covered in dirt or paved over, and may shift due to freezing and thawing in colder climates.
Valve exercising involves locating the valve and cleaning the box for access to the valve nut. Operating the valve ensures it functions correctly, as some may be inadvertently left closed, affecting water pressure and flow. This process highlights the importance of documenting valve maintenance to ensure all valves receive attention and that any inoperable valves are identified for replacement.
Doing this project by hand can be physically challenging and may lead to lower back injuries for valve operators. That’s why many cities use valve operating machines equipped with revolution counters, torque gauges, and GPS connections to document valve data efficiently.
Machines can operate far more valves daily than a person can manage and continue to do so consistently. Complete valve maintenance units are typically mounted on trucks or trailers and may include an excavating vacuum, pressure washer, hydrant flushing diffuser, and valve operating machine.
