Hepvo Valve Suppliers Australia - Hepvo Valve Overview and Benefits

Running over to Reece Plumbing, Bunnings or a "plumbing supplies near me" to pick up a waste trap? But not sure if you have enough space?

Plumbing in small places is challenging. This is especially true when you are trying to fit a S trap or a P trap where space is a premium. Such as a shower or sink. Or if you are working on a caravan, RV or boat.

This is where waterless plumbing traps come in!

How do waterless traps work?

Horizontal operation

Vertical operation

With a flexible self sealing membrane, waterless traps open during use to allow waste water to flow through the fitting and close once the water water drains.This self sealing action allows water to flow whilst preventing foul sewer gases from entering your premises.

The Hep_vO valve is a unique self-sealing waste valve that prevents the escape of foul sewer air from waste discharge systems, and actively maintains the pressure equilibrium in soil and waste installations.

What are the benefits?

The advantages of a waterless trap are

can be installed vertically, horizontaly or any angle in between
no foul orders
hygienic
space saver
no "gurgling" noises
easy flow
perfect for occasional use (such as RV's, guest bedrooms, motor homes)
copes with food waste
operates in hot/cold environments.

As a dry sealing valve, the Hep_vO valve utilizes a purpose designed membrane to create an airtight seal between the living space and the drainage system. The self-sealing valve opens under the water pressure of a fixture emptying, and closes to form a tight seal after the fixture has discharged under normal atmospheric conditions.

You can pick up waterless traps in the sizes of 40mm Hepvo Valve, 32mm Hepvo and 50mm Abey Valve. The 32mm Hepvo valves are predominantly used in caravans, rv's and boats.

In addition to the waste valves the below fittings might help you with the installation.
