Residential Check Valves
WaBack Residential is an automatic backflow preventer for sewage and storm water. WaBack Residential is installed in basements or homes in low lying areas where sewer pipes risk backing up causing sewer flooding inside the home. WaBack Residential is installed inline in the existing pipe and provides a secure protection against basement flooding.

100% protection

Protecting your properties
If rodents, flies, insects or other animals enter water or sewer systems they can cause damage and spread disease. A potential point of contamination can be the overflow from a reservoir or treatment plant where rodents, snakes, birds or other insects enter through the emergency outfall pipe.
Simple and effective
By having the flow area completely open during normal operation the WaBack Residential effectively removes the risk of blockages and minimizes maintenance. When backflow occurs, the flotation pipe is kept above water level and rising water is prevented from flowing back into the pipe system.

We at Wapro know that solutions for flood protection need to function simply and effectively. With the WaBack Mini you can be assured that we focus on commonsense and simplicity. In normal operation, the entire pipe through the WaBack Mini is open for flow. As soon as backflow occurs the flotation pipe rises stopping backflow from entering the home. The flotation pipe seals against the sealing plate to ensure absolutely no water can force its way into the home. When the back-pressure decrease and its safe for the valve to open, it opens automatically allowing normal flow again.
Fully automatically, with no external power source required. The WaBack Mini unit is developed for installation in a basement. It can be installed into an existing pipeline with flexible couplings or sleeves. The chamber is to be placed so that the upper edge of the inlet pipe is at least 8" lower than the basement floor.
Maintenance
The only maintenance required for the WaBack Mini is to check twice per year. No electricity or human interaction is required to protect your home. With minimal inspection WaBack Mini protects against flooding and provides peace of mind.

WaBack Residential is an innovation based on the original WaBack non-return valve which we developed in 1988. The function is the same as the original WaBack but the design has been adjusted to enable it to be installed directly into the basement floor. An option appreciated by many home owners.
