PF Waterworks Touts First Ever Self Cleaning Green P-Trap System

    PF Waterworks has announced the availability of PermaFLOW™ -- the "world's first ever self cleaning 'GREEN' P-Trap System." the maker claims.

    PermaFLOW has been selected for the Charleston Concept Home demonstration project -- a housing R&D program sponsored by US HUD and its PATH program -- with the goal of showcasing and speeding builder's adoption of elegant innovations. The main project goals are production efficiency, sustainability, and flexibility in the home. A few of PermaFLOW's features and benefits are detailed below:

    SELF CLEANING - Increases Flow Turbulence

    CONSERVES WATER - Efficient with Low Flow Rates

    UPPER BY-PASS™ CHAMBER - Ensures Emergency Flow

    EASY TURN EXTERNAL PADDLE — Sweeps Build-up

    ENVIRONMENT FRIENDLY - No More Harmful Chemicals

    RESCUE™ AND LIFT - Easy Retrieval of Dropped Items

    TRANSPARENT ABS CONSTRUCTION - For Fast Diagnostics

    SAVES MONEY - No More Expensive Drain Cleaning

    QUICK, EASY INSTALLATION - Fits New & Existing Plumbing

    CERTIFIED — Complies with UPC, IPC and IRC

    PermaFLOW's™ unique construction generates flow turbulence which continually moves sediment downstream to prevent routine build-up inside the trap area, the maker claims. Unlike traditional p-traps, PermaFLOW™ is transparent which allows for easy inspection for potential problems. When you can see it, with PermaFLOW™, you can solve the problem. Equipped with a rotating paddle to wipe and clean, any potential buildup can be "swept" away or in the case of the diamond ring or toys, rescued, without opening the drain to a messy cleanup. PermaFLOW's™ simple, effective operation eliminates the expense, effort and frustration from using the typical plungers and snakes.

    PermaFLOW™ Drain offers a GREEN alternative. It safely ends the need for hazardous drain-clearing chemicals and the associated personal safety and environmental issues. Since these chemicals are no longer required, the quality of gray water is not compromised and is available for alternative use in efforts to recycle water. In geographic areas where the focus on conserving water resources has increased the use of low flow rate faucets, PermaFLOW™ facilitates removal of stagnant debris in the trap area.

    Because PermaFLOW™ is transparent, has improved flow characteristics, and can be cleaned with the paddle, the opportunity for periodic observation and easy maintenance of the drain system prevents development of a problem. As a result, potential long term benefits are possible in residential, commercial and high traffic public locations, in addition to municipal infrastructures.

    PermaFLOW™ is designed and manufactured in the United States to easily install into both new and existing kitchen and bath plumbing and comes with a 'Ten Year Limited Warranty'. Constructed of durable ABS plastic, PermaFLOW™ has been tested to standards by IAPMO and has been certified to comply with 'Uniform Plumbing Code' (UPC) for US and Canada as well as the 'International Plumbing Code' (IPC) and 'International Residential Code (IRC).

    PermaFLOW has been showcased at the IBS, ISH, KBIS, and BIS Shows and has received significant appreciation and interest from one and all.
