Watts 2M2 1/2 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Watts 2M2 1/2 washing machine shutoff valve connect to 1/2 inch copper supply lines?
Yes. The Watts 2M2 1/2 Duo-Cloz valve comes with copper ell adapters that can be soldered or used with compression fittings, so it ties into 1/2 inch copper hot and cold stubs. Both hot and cold inlets are 1/2 inch male threaded, and the adapters are what bridge the threads to the copper.
2) Do the hot and cold sides of this washing machine valve shut off together or separately?
Together. The Duo-Cloz design uses a single lever handle that closes both hot and cold in one motion, which is what you want for a laundry box where the hose bibs should be shut whenever the machine is idle. There is no separate hot-only or cold-only handle on this model.
3) Is the Watts 2M2 1/2 valve lead free for potable water installations?
No. The 2M2 1/2 is a brass-body valve that is not lead free, so it should not be specified where lead-free potable water components are required by code. For laundry openings governed by lead-free requirements, choose a valve marked lead free instead.
4) What do the washing machine hoses thread onto with the Watts 2M2 1/2?
Both outlets on the 2M2 1/2 are male threaded, so standard washer fill hoses with female couplings thread straight on, one hot and one cold. No extra adapters are needed on the hose side.
5) Is this Watts washing machine valve rated for hot water supply temperatures?
The 2M2 1/2 handles up to 180 degrees F and 150 psi, which covers residential and light commercial domestic hot water service. A laundry line running above 180 F or a system with pressure over 150 psi needs a different valve or a regulator ahead of it.
6) Does the Watts 2M2 1/2 meet Buy American Act requirements for a government job?
No. The 2M2 1/2 is listed as not Buy American Act compliant, so it will not satisfy a federal or state job spec that requires BAA-compliant plumbing components.
7) Is a brass body worth it over a plastic laundry valve for a multi-family building?
For rental and multi-family laundry closets the brass body holds up to repeated handle cycling and to the torque tenants put on hose connections. The 2M2 1/2 is brass throughout with a single lever, rated to 150 psi and 180 F, and it standardizes easily across units since every opening gets the same 1/2 inch male threaded hot and cold connections.
