T&S Brass B-0107 Pre-Rinse Spray Valve - Efficient 1.15 GPM Cleaning

In this review the T&S Brass B-0107 spray valve is evaluated as a workhorse pre-rinse tool for busy commercial kitchens. The bottom line: it is aimed at operators who need a compact, reliable spray valve that saves water without sacrificing cleaning power. The reviewer found the valve easy to install, with a focused, powerful stream and a fine spray pattern that handles typical pre-rinse tasks quickly while meeting Department of Energy flow limits. Durability is generally good but some users report mixed long-term wear under extreme use.

Key Features

• Low flow compliance: The valve runs at 1.15 GPM to meet DOE requirements while reducing water and energy use compared with higher-flow alternatives.
• Built for heavy use: Designed for industrial kitchens, the construction stands up to frequent pre-rinse cycles and daily commercial demands.
• Powerful spray pattern: The newly designed nozzle produces a concentrated stream and fine spray that removes food debris efficiently.
• Easy installation: Reviewers report a straightforward fit to common flex hoses and kitchen faucet setups, saving time during replacement or upgrades.
• Proven pedigree: From a brand with decades in food service plumbing, the valve benefits from long-term product development and parts availability.

Who It's For

The B-0107 is ideal for restaurants, cafeterias, and any high-turnover commercial kitchen where pre-rinse speed and water savings matter. It suits kitchen staff who need a compact spray and predictable performance for daily rinsing and light scraping prior to dishwashing.

Those who should look elsewhere include facilities requiring an ultra-heavy-duty valve built specifically for continuous, industrial production-line use where some users have reported mixed long-term durability; a heavier duty model or one specified for extreme cycle counts may be a better match.
