Changing the valve rubber in a Ritchie automatic waterer valve will help to elongate the life of your valve. Normal wear and tear or a buildup of deposits from your original water source are the main reasons a valve rubber will need to be flipped over or changed. Once you notice a small drip at your valve you will know it is time to change your valve rubber.
