Here you can also learn about the advantages of the Stop Silent® and Stop Silent Light® technology from Lasso Technik AG.

What is the specific function of the non-return valve & the backwater flap?

The Stop-Silent® check valve ensures that the water in pipes and lines can always flow in one direction without being given the opportunity to reverse. This applies in particular to drinking water pipes, but also to service water pipes - e.g. for heating water. Valves are also used in conjunction with valves and pumps to determine the direction of flow. The flaps are always closed, except when the liquid flows in the right direction they open. In this way, pumps can be prevented from causing backflow of water.

The Stop-Silent Light® backwater valve is used in dirty water pipes. Designed for backwater, the flap proves its worth, for example, when the sewer system is in danger of flooding. If too much water - due to heavy rain, for example - enters the sewer system, a surge of water occurs. Once the backwater level is exceeded, apartments in the basement or the cellar are at risk of flooding. This can result in costly removal of a fecal water damage.

Where is the backwater valve installed?

It is installed in the control manhole and the installation can be done easily within a few minutes. In addition, there is no need for any modifications. A great advantage of the backwater flaps is that they can be used without electricity and are always active, i.e. autonomous. The backwater flap clamps itself uncomplicatedly into the wastewater pipe. Therefore, no structural measures or special precautions are necessary for the installation. Thanks to our easy-to-understand installation instructions, the backwater flaps can be installed and retrofitted by yourself even without expert knowledge.

What is special about Stop-Silent Light® technology?

Backwater valves equipped with this innovative technology have membranes. As soon as the liquid hits the flap, it deforms slightly, allowing the liquid to flow through. If strong pressure is applied to the flap in the other direction of flow, it closes completely and offers very high resistance. Thus, the flap provides a reliable and precise seal. In this way, flooding can be prevented.

How often should the backwater flap & check valve be serviced?

The manufacturer recommends maintenance once a year for the flap if it is used for rainwater. If you use the flap in connection with sewage (e.g. with regard to fecal matter), maintenance is recommended twice a year. Here, first of all, a check is carried out to ensure that the valve is in good working order.

In addition, the operability of the valve is to be checked and whether the pipe behind it can perform its service properly. If cleaning is necessary, it is essential to do it very gently and never with high pressure. For example, you can simply take the valve out of the pipe, clean it by hand, and put it back in the pipe without any complications.
