Astro Express 2 Hot Water Recirculation System
Brand: Armstrong Fluid TechnologyThe Armstrong Astro Express 2 hot water recirculation system is a combination of circulator and low-flow (LF) valve that provides instant hot water in a residential plumbing system. The LF valve shifts cooled hot water into the cold water supply line instead of into the drain. This means far less cooled water is wasted each time the hot water faucet is opened – saving an average of 12,000 gallons of water annually for a typical four-person household. Ideal for retrofit applications.
Features- Hot water recirculation with instant hot water at the tap reaps an average annual water savings of 12,000 gallons (based on a family of four spending over 90 hours per year waiting for hot water to arrive at the tap)
- Unique valve design for individual adjustment to specific installation needs (only such system currently available)
- Factory tested and pre-wired for maximum installation safety and convenience
