Areoflex is an automatic drain valve that can be fitted to shower valves that are connected to flexible shower hoses and handheld showerheads. The valve opens automatically once the shower valve is turned off and any residual water is able to drain from the hose and out through the valve. As the hose is vented and water is not trapped between the valve and the shower head it will dry quickly reducing the opportunity for bacteria to grow.
The Areoflex is installed in between the shower valve and the shower hose and incorporates a rotary connector which makes the hose easier to use and maximises the life of the hose by helping to prevent it from getting kinks and becoming damaged.
