Foot valves are a type of check valve used in plumbing systems to prevent backflow of water and maintain a prime in pumps. They are typically installed at the bottom of a suction line, allowing water to enter the pump while preventing it from flowing back out when the pump is turned off. Foot valves are commonly made from materials such as brass, stainless steel, or plastic, depending on the application and environmental conditions.
