Product news WaterSecure Australia’s first smart water security company, WaterSecure Co, has launched with the goal of protecting as many Australian’s as they can against water loss and damage, which is necessary considering: • Water damage in Australia has risen dramatically in the past 10 years; • The frequency of water-pipes bursting has nearly doubled; and • Australian households hold the worst record for water consumption globally. WaterSecure Co combines the innovation of the leading US product Flo, with local industry expertise to offer water security and savings for homeowners. The company has partnered with Planet Plumbing to
bring WaterSecure to life through its nationwide network. WaterSecure’s products offer a suite of options that work together or independently to protect homes from water damage and leaks. Installed on the main water supply line, the Flo Smart Water Shutoff protects the entire home from water damage and leaks. The product continuously monitors the home’s water pressure, flow rate and can detect leaks as small as one drop per minute anywhere in the home or business, automatically triggering the shut-off feature from the main supply line.

Aussie’s Jetter City When Australian pump built the first Cobra drain cleaning Jetter 20 years ago, the company didn’t realise it was the beginning of a product development program. Today, the company has a range of high pressure Jetters that are technically faster, safer and more efficient than other electro-mechanical drain cleaning equipment. “We’re building hundreds of Jetters at our 2.5acre Castle Hill premises just to keep up with demand. The driver for the sales was a combination of the right equipment, the right price and even free delivery anywhere in Australia,” said Aussie Pumps’ Production Manager, Mal Patel. “Plumbers tell us that our Jetters are safer, 38 | Australian Plumbing Industry Magazine | Summer 2020
cleaner and significantly more efficient. “Add to that the Mini Reel, remote draining cleaning attachment and the operator can control the drain cleaner from the reel, up to 60 metres away from the machine. That’s a huge benefit in terms of convenience and safety” he said. “We know smart plumbers will be buying Jetters between now and Christmas to take advantage of the “End Of The Eel” program with heavily discounted prices. With the bonus of the government’s deprecation allowance, it’s exceptional time to get into jetting” Patel said. For more information, visit aussiepumps.com.au
