The Automatic Backflush valve (ABF) cleans scale from heat exhangers in Domestic Hot Water (DHW) systems, avoiding costly maintenance and increasing the lifespan of the system.

The principle of automatic backflush

Heat exchangers exposed to fresh water experience accelerated scaling and fouling. This leads to overheating, increased energy consumption, a rise in operational costs and eventually system failure​.

The ABF valve automatically backflushes and cleans the heat exchanger with cold water during every draw of hot water. No adjustment or manual intervention is needed.
