Closet flange
Dallas Specialty Mfg. has a new easy repair closet flange that features a metal adjustable ring, a full-flow inside diameter and a secure seal with a 4-ribbed gasket. Easy to install by PUSH and SHUV. Fits PVC/ABS and cast-iron pipes. www.dallasspecialty.com
Pipe and fittings system
Charlotte Pipe’s Edge HP Iron is a specially coated cast-iron pipe and fittings system designed for aggressive DWV applications where enhanced protection may be needed, such as hospitals, casinos and commercial kitchens. The high-performance system is available in sizes from 2”-15” and meets or exceeds all coating performance requirements, Charlotte Pipe notes. www.charlottepipe.com
NO-HUB coupling
The Husky corrosion-resistant coupling has been engineered by Anaco to provide a heavy-duty 316 stainless steel coupling for corrosive applications, balancing the desire for a more rigid joint with the need to provide superior positive seal, which can accommodate possible disparities in the no-hub pipe and fittings, Anaco-Husky explains. This coupling is perfect for underground applications, parking garages, tunnels, bridges, near waterways, rooftops and exposure to sea salt air, the company points out. This has been accomplished by manufacturing the coupling with a super-duty corrugated shield of sufficient width to accommodate additional surface-bearing sealing clamps. www.anaco-husky.com
Butterfly valves
The Red-White Valve Corp. Series 937MESL/938 MESL butterfly valves manufactured by Red-White Valve Corp. are made with high-quality stainless steel discs and EPDM deat material. The stainless disc makes this valve the logical choice for adverse water conditions that may have an effect on typical aluminum, bronze and ductile-iron disc material. This along with the added tensile strength of the ductile body puts this series of valves high on the list of the engineers’ choice, Red-White Valve notes. www.redwhitevalvecorp.com

Seated/150 class butterfly valves
Jomar Valve’s resilient seated or 150 Class high-performance butterfly valves are built to last longer, Jomar notes. With EPDM, Buna, PTFE, Vitron, RPTFE, metal or fire-safe seats are available with an actuator, gear operator or lever handle, these 2”-36” stainless, carbon or ductile-iron body lug and wafer pattern butterfly valves customize to any job, the company adds. www.jomarvalve.com
Stainless fittings
Viega’s MegaPress stainless press fittings provide time savings for industrial fire protection installations, the company notes. Press connections make installation fast, while the threaded branch allows for easy attachment of sprinkler pendants, making pre-fab possible, Viega adds. All MegaPress stainless systems have UL and FM approvals and are perfectly suited for many corrosive environments. www.viega.us

Drain seal
Oatey’s updated Drain Seal blocks unwanted odors, sewer gases and insects from entering a building through a drain. The enhanced design won’t restrict water flow or sacrifice drain performance, Oatey adds. The seal is engineered with a drainage system that not only prevents water from evaporating in the P-trap, but also allows for continuous water flow, which simultaneously inhibits ponding or pooling around a drain, the manufacturer explains. Available in 2” or 3” sizes and is compatible with most popular floor and shower drains. www.oatey.com
Flexible sprinkler drop
Easyflex’s new ultra performance flexible sprinkler drop features a 1 1/4” ID, which translates into less friction loss than 1” Schedule 40 pipe with the same number of 90°s, Easyflex points out. This, in turn, helps expedite the process from design approval to completion of your project. www.easyflexusa.com

ASSE certified four port valve
The Model 170D-LF is a four port POU valve designed with convenience in mind, Leonard Valve notes. The installing contractor can feed the faucet fixture with not only tempered water at ideal temperatures for hand wash applications, as well as cold water from the integral "by-pass" feature which is incorporated into the design. For those installers who do not want the cold water by-pass, every valve is equipped with a by-pass cap for easy shut off capability. The Model 170D-LF also features a tam-per resistant temperature locknut and is ASSE 1070 certified. www.leonardvalve.com
Potable water safety
GF Piping Systems’ Hycleen automation system is an automated balancing and flushing solution for improving potable water safety in premise plumbing. In large hot water distribution systems, stagnation, rough surfaces and temperatures below 122 °F can promote the formation of biofilms and the proliferation of Legionella bacteria. The Hycleen system provides hydraulic temperature balancing and water flushing with a preventive maintenance feature to avoid these problems, GF notes. The new system is particularly suited for buildings with larger hot water distribution systems found in hospitals, schools, offices, hotels and skilled nursing homes. www.gfps.com

Tub box kits
Available with 2” and 3” Metacaulk cast-in-place device, the RectorSeal tub box kits are designed to prevent the spread of fire from bathtub or jet-spa drains to the upper level. No concrete drilling is required. The maximum slab height with kit components is 10”. For deeper slabs, Metacaulk CID extensions are available. www.rectorseal.com
Refrigerant branch units
Fujitsu General America’s two larger refrigerant branch units simply installations and expand the heat recovery capability of its VR-II series Airstage VRF systems, the company explains. The new RBUs, which manage simultaneous heating and cooling in heat-recovery systems, can serve between eight and 12 zones. Previously, only four zones could be served by a single RBU. This advancement permits engineers, architects and installers to use fewer RBUs, and also expands the flexibility of heat-recovery systems, providing the opportunity to share thermal energy across more zones. www.fujitsugeneral.com

AERCO

Tankless indirect water heaters
AERCO, a Watts brand, introduces the SmartPlate EV, the next evolution of tankless indirect water heaters that uses state-of-the-art technology to meet current and future needs of commercial and institutional domestic water-to-water heating installations, the company explains.
