How it works.

Four flexible silicone sealing ribs form a one-way valve. Water and debris pass through under gravity. Commercial wash-down volumes, mop water, and kitchen runoff all drain normally.

When flow stops, the ribs close to create a continuous mechanical seal that blocks sewer gas, odors, and pests from entering the occupied space above.

The flexible design accommodates pipe diameters from 75 to 85 mm. Drop-in installation with no tools required.
