Description

The Watts 8AC Hose Connection Vacuum Breaker Backflow Preventer is a safety part that stops the backflow of polluted water into the drinking water supply. All hose connections come with it and work through releasing any form of negative pressure as it may be developed within the system. This also ensures that the formation of a vacuum is not encouraged in the process, something that could lead to the drawing of contaminated water back into the clean water supply. Vacuum breakers are generally applied to the HVAC systems to prevent backflow from sources like garden hoses, irrigation systems, etc. These include better protection of public wellness, meeting plumbing codes and essentials, and avoiding expensive contamination mishaps.
