{{Quote|Down you go!|'''Down The Drain''' [[Achievement]] description}}   
'''Valves''' are a [[Features|Feature]] found within [[The Dam]]. It serves as the final puzzle piece needed to be used by the [[player]] to flush [[Seek]] out of [[The Dam]] and to escape [[The Mines]].   

[[File:Valves.png|thumb|A ''Valve'' found in The Dam.]]

=={{Icons|Overview}} Overview==
''Valves'' are found within all 3 levels of the final [[Seek|Dam Seek]] boss in the mines, each ''valve'' is hidden in the flood.

After turning all the ''valves'' in [[The Dam]]. Seek will go Down The Drain giving access to a [[Generator]] for [[The Woods]].  Before escaping [[The Mines]] after beating Seek, the player can get the "Down The Drain" [[Achievements|achievement]].

=={{Icons|Usage}} Usage==
''Valves'' are found in all three levels of [[The Dam]]. Once the [[player]] twists one of them, a bar will show up, if they twist enough ''valves'', [[Seek]] will drain more and gets new abilities in different phases, the first phase requires them to twist two, the second requires the player to twist 4 and the third phase requires them to twist 5 ''valves''.

=={{Icons|Trivia}} Strategies==

* Do not try to rush your way towards the ''valves'', doing so might get you caught in [[Seek]]'s goop. 
* Look around for [[Guiding Light]] highlighting the ''valves''.
* Speedboosts are recommended to evade the attacks. However be careful as you may fall easily into the slime.
* Jump over boulders to reach some ''Valves'' easily and avoid the risk of going through Seek.
* It is recommended to make out your path before you go. Doing so will help you get to ''Valves'' safely.

=== Notes ===

* A hotbar will show up whenever the player twists a ''valve''.
* No ''valves'' will need to be activated above Seek's level.
* ''Valves'' always have the same spawn locations in every run.
* ''Valves'' can't be interacted with before the slight speed boost is given to the player.

== {{Icons|Bugs}} Bugs ==

* If you get voided during a giggle attack, you will not be able to interact with anything, including ''Valves.''
* Sometimes when playing with low graphics, [[Guiding Light]] may not highlight the ''Valves.''
* If your teammate twists the last ''Valve'' while you are on the debris, you will get stuck under and eventually die of drowning. This is most likely a bug.
