The valves themselves should be protected from the sun, vandalism, etc. by some type of valve box. If the valve is located in a high-traffic area, you may want a box that has a locking top. If the valve is more remote, you’ll want some type of cover to protect against the elements (UV rays, machetes, livestock).
See the principal valve box section for box construction. In case the valve fails, it will need to be replaced. See section on PVC connections for more information.
