SEWER BACK-UP PROTECTION

>>

For years, working as a contractor for the City of Edmonton, plumber and gasfitter Gabe Coscarella saw first-hand the damage to a home that can happen from sewer backup and flooding. A casual sketch drawn at his work table led to Coscarella becoming an award-winning innovator and president of his own successful plumbing manufacturing company, Mainline Backflow Products Inc. of Edmonton. The Mainline Backflow Valve now protects over 250,000 homes. The Canadian Institute of Plumbing and Heating voted Mainline's valve the most innovative plumbing product of 1997, and the valve went on to win the Institute's coveted Ivan R. Leger Award as well as the prestigious Manning Innovation Award (see www.manningawards.ca).

NATIONAL AWARD-WINNING PLUMBING PRODUCT DESIGN AUTOMATIC PROTECTION FOR THE LIFETIME OF THE HOME

ITS A SIMPLE SOLUTION FOR THE HOMEOWNER

Flooding can sometimes cause sewage from sanitary sewer lines to back up into houses through drain pipes. These backups not only cause damage that is difficult and costly to repair, but they also create health hazards and a devastating experience for the homeowner. Backwater valves prevent the flow of sewage into houses through drain pipes. The award winning Mainline Fullport Valve provides automatic sewer backup protection, protecting the home and adding peace of mind for the owner.

FOR THE BUILDER

During construction, sewer backups are common and are generally caused by mud entering the sanitary sewer system. This mud causes blockages and creates backflow through the laterals and back to the basement. This can result in a very messy clean up! The Mainline Fullport Valve provides a remedy for this situation. By simply inserting a wedge in the valve's internals, the gate will remain closed during construction and keeps mud out of the system. The optional wedge can be easily inserted through the clean out of the valve and just as easily removed after construction is completed.

EASY TO INSTALL FOR CONTRACTORS

The construction stage is the most economical and practical time to install the backwater valve. The valve is installed at the groundworks stage, before the concrete is poured. The Mainline Fullport Backwater Valve is installed simply with the rest of the plumbing just inside the foundation wall with little or no extra labour charges.

ITS IN THE CODE

Recent changes to the Ontario Building Code recognise the value of this new plumbing innovation. Mainline Backflow Products successfully changed the National Plumbing Code of Canada through its development of the Mainline Backwater Valve, and its innovative "normally open" backwater valve design. The code now allows main building-drain protection for all new houses across Canada without any other backflow requirement.
