US-headquartered Zurn Engineered Water Solutions offers the largest range of engineered water solutions, including a wide spectrum of sustainable plumbing products, says the Saudi-based Universal Building Materials Merchants Company (UBM), which represents Zurn in the kingdom.

For more than a century, Zurn has established itself as an innovator and leading manufacturer of highly engineered water product solutions and is a recognised leader in the commercial, municipal, healthcare, and industrial markets.

“Zurn backflow products offer the greatest value of any backflow preventer on the market,” says a spokesman for UBM. “The company offers a variety of configurations to meet customer needs, as well as reliable proven designs with an emphasis on maintenance, repair and total cost of ownership (TCO).”

Zurn pressure-reducing valves provide innovative solutions to specific water system requirements. The company offers the best valve features available, delivering the lowest cost of ownership and lifecycle cost, the best industry lead time, and a comprehensive set of approvals/listings, he claims.

With standard features such as isolation valves, gauges, wye strainers, and epoxy coating, the Zurn 200 series allows for easier and faster commissioning and maintenance.

Meanwhile, Zurn linear drainage systems remove water and chemicals in a safe, controlled manner.  “Larger trench drain systems used for public transportation areas can move more than 26,000 gallons per minute, eliminating dangerous water pooling,” says the UBM spokesman.

Its pre-engineered, modular trench systems are designed for ease of installation, load-bearing strength, hydraulics, chemical resistance, and structural integrity. These labour-saving installations require minimal maintenance and offer low TCO.
