WD Industrial Aqua-Flo Water Line Freeze Protection System: Proudly Made in Canada

When winter strikes, frozen water lines can cause significant damage and inconvenience. The Aqua-Flo Water Line Freeze Protection System is a Canadian product that offers an innovative and reliable solution to keep your water service lines from freezing, ensuring uninterrupted water flow even in the coldest months. With its advanced automatic operation and no-waste technology, Aqua-Flo provides efficient and eco-friendly winter protection for homes where service lines are exposed to freezing conditions.

What Makes Aqua-Flo Water Line Freeze Protection System Stand Out?

Continuous Flow for Freeze Prevention

One of the standout features of the Aqua-Flo system is its ability to maintain a continuous flow of water. By keeping the water in motion, the risk of freezing is significantly reduced. This 24/7 protection ensures that your water lines remain functional, even in extreme winter conditions.

Automatic Operation for Hassle-Free Use

Aqua-Flo operates using a BLEED, CAPTURE, and RETURN system, ensuring water circulation without unnecessary waste. This means you don’t have to manually monitor or adjust the system—it works automatically to maintain optimal performance.

No Water Waste for Environmental Efficiency

Unlike traditional freeze prevention methods that waste water, Aqua-Flo recaptures bled water in a holding tank and returns it to the service line. This closed-loop system prevents water loss while maintaining a sterile and efficient operation.

Reliable Even During Power Failures

Designed to operate even in the event of electrical or mechanical failures, Aqua-Flo has an overflow feature that ensures water continues to drain safely, preventing ice blockages and damage to the system.

Efficient Cycling for Optimal Performance

Aqua-Flo’s automatic cycling function ensures proper operation without unnecessary energy consumption. The system cycles every 45 minutes, with a 4-minute pump-down time, maintaining efficient water flow and protection.

Easy Installation and Low Maintenance

The Aqua-Flo system has a straightforward installation process. Once installed, minimal maintenance is required to keep it functioning effectively throughout the winter season.

How Does Aqua-Flo Work?

Aqua-Flo operates by bleeding water from the house or municipal supply into a holding tank. The system releases trapped air through an air release valve or an activated carbon air filter. When the water in the tank reaches a certain level, a pneumatic switch activates the motor, pumping the water back into the service line and water main through a check valve. This ensures a continuous water flow and prevents freezing in the system.
