New Electric RV Waste
Valve
PhaseFour's newDrain Master is an easy and simple method for emptying RV waste tanks. No more dirty, messy and smelly exposure to unsanitary waste. Now, simply attach the drain hose normally, then flip the conveniently mounted electric switch. It's that easy, simple and clean. Drain Master is an electrically operated waste valve that replaces the standard gate valve on just about any RV. It operates on standard 12 volt RV systems and draws less than 500 milliamps during operation. A special tool for manual override is attached should there be a power loss. Drain Master waste valves are perfect for gray and/or black water tanks on both towable and motorized RVs. It's ultra slim profile fits easily into service areas on most RVs, and it is constructed with brass, stainless steel and rugged, durable, injection molded ABS plastic. It's impervious to rust, staining and rotting, and comes with a full 5 year unconditional warranty to the original owner. Installation requires no special tools, and all necessary installation components are included. Each valve comes with its own switch and switch plate that identifies gray or black water tanks.

New Line of RV Water Heaters
American Standard, the world's largest manufacturer of products for the plumbing industry, has started production on water heaters for the RV industry at its Trane Co. manufacturing facility in Mexico City. The new line features both 6 and 10 gallon sizes with BTU input rates of 16,400. Tests indicate that the higher input rates will provide between 36% and 60% more hot water than similar storage type water heaters currently being used in the industry. The water heaters are available for both LP gas and combination LP gas and electric fuel sources. The water heaters feature steel tanks employing a new production process that permits all welding to be performed prior to the application of American Standard's exclusive Duroglass coating. Higher input rates are achieved with the utilization of a new Turbo Flow combustion chamber on which a patent is pending. The water heaters also incorporate other new features including tapered door flanges for a more "flush mount" appearance. The water heaters have both ANSI and UL certifications for the U.S. and Canada. Inquiries east of the Mississippi should be directed to Fleming Sales Co., Elkhart, IN. Phone 219-295-0234, and inquiries west of the Mississippi should be made directly to American Standard in Whittier, CA. Phone 800-900-9063, extension 5. RVN |
