| Revolutionary plumbing product PF WaterWorks, a Houston based consumer products company, launched its revolutionary plumbing product PermaFLOW - the first ever p-trap replacement and drain management system. Sanjay Ahuja, Vice President of PF WaterWorks, said, "PermaFLOW is a premium product with highly innovative features that not only replace the traditional p-trap, but provide continuous pro-active maintenance for the drainage system. Because conventional p-trap technology hasn't experienced any major changes since Roman times, the revolutionary PermaFLOW Drain Management System is really changing history. Already patented, and with other patents pending, this is the next generation of drain management. PermaFLOW has been affirmed with the stamp of approval by IAPMO testing and received UPC certification for the US and Canada." PermaFLOW is designed and manufactured in the USA. Although a conventional p-trap serves as a necessary component of a drainage system, the simple design has always been prone to problems. PermaFLOW Drain functions like a p-trap in normal use, but also has added technology to ensure the "permanent flow" of water. Unlike traditional p-traps, PermaFLOW is made of clear ABS plastic, so potential problems are not only seen, they can be diagnosed and quickly remedied. The inlet and outlet pipes on PermaFLOW are angled to increase flow turbulence. This helps break and propel debris which minimizes deposition and prevents the sink from becoming clogged. Inside PermaFLOW there is a "first ever" rotating paddle that can clear blockage with a turn of the outside mounted dial. This rotating paddle feature also provides users with a by-pass mode to quickly avoid the blockage until convenient maintenance may be performed – as well as the ability to lift and easily retrieve items dropped down the drain. Equally important, the environmentally friendly PermaFLOW also eliminates the need for expensive and potentially dangerous or harmful chemicals. PermaFLOW is Green by Design. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Construction News :: home page |
