well i think, the only metal that would make contact with the water is this little 3\16" diameter metal drum on the solenoid, but that would be the like with any float switch \ solenoid top off system employed in any of our tanks right?
i would agree with the likleyhood, but i wouldnt rank it too high of a concern really. the valve is a regular pvc valve, with a solenoid on top. i doubt it would do much, if any damage at all. i do understand concern stemming from using a construction, grade valve on a fish tank, but really, fish grade valves are the same thing in a different package, i would imagine?
maybe a plummber could chime in on this one?
