The Inta HPBV11 is a 1" female swivel x 1" male full bore ball valve purpose-built for air source heat pump installations. Manufactured from solid brass and rated to PN25 (25 bar), it's designed to be fitted directly onto the heat pump so the unit can be isolated for servicing without draining down the wider system. The standout feature is the extended lever handle, which keeps the valve easy to operate even once the pipework around it has been fully insulated.
-20 to 120°C
Temperature range
Full Bore
Unrestricted flow
Informational: This valve is supplied with an adjustment tool and a protective dust cover, and the lever extension can be removed to leave a standard 1" flat face connection for other applications.
Extended Lever Handle
The extended lever keeps the valve easy to reach and operate even once surrounding pipework has been insulated.
Full Bore Design
A full bore internal profile matches the connected pipework, minimising pressure loss and preserving flow rate through the heat pump circuit.
Solid Brass Construction
Manufactured from solid brass for durable, long-term performance directly on the heat pump unit.
Drain-Down-Free Servicing
Fitted directly onto the heat pump, allowing the unit to be isolated for maintenance without draining down the rest of the system.
Removable Lever Extension
The lever extension can be removed, converting the valve to a standard 1" flat face connection for other applications.
High Pressure Rating
Rated to PN25 (25 bar) maximum inlet pressure, suiting the demands of modern air source heat pump systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does this valve have an extended lever instead of a standard handle?
The extended lever is designed to reach past pipe insulation, so the valve stays easy to grip and operate even after the surrounding pipework has been lagged.
Do I need to drain the system to service the heat pump with this valve fitted?
No. The valve is designed to be fitted directly onto the heat pump, so it can be closed to isolate the unit for maintenance without draining down the rest of the system.
Can I remove the lever extension if I need a standard flat face connection?
Yes, the lever extension can be removed, leaving a standard 1" flat face connection suitable for other applications requiring that fitting.
What's included in the box?
Each valve comes with an adjustment tool and a protective dust cover in addition to the valve itself.
Is the HPBV11 WRAS approved?
Yes, this valve is WRAS approved, confirming it meets UK water regulations.
