Are Drain-All products reliable?
Drain-All’s cycling is controlled by a patented magnetic interaction with a totally pneumatic control air circuit that is isolated from the reservoir. While other pneumatic drains have a complex lever action “toilet bowl” type internal float with many parts inside the reservoir with the water and debris, there are no mechanical moving parts inside the Drain-All to wear out or jam. Since the Drain-All is totally pneumatic, it is not affected by power outages or the other vulnerabilities of electrical devices such as timer solenoid valves, motorized ball valves or electrically operated float traps. With the isolation of the control air pathways separate from the reservoir area, Drain-All is reliable and robust. Some electronic trap devices, timers and floats, have PC boards that are claimed to provide added features such as alarms. If these products did not have such fragile designs with complex components that fail often via clogs and breakage, as well as wearing out quickly requiring a
