Designed for new construction market
Ariston USA, a part of Ariston Group, a global leader in heat pump water heating, announced the launch of the Hybrid Builder Heat Pump residential water heater from American Standard Water Heaters as part of its U.S. builder segment focus.
The Hybrid Builder Heat Pump water heater is available in 40-, 50-, 65- and 80-gallon capacities in 208V or 240V single phase. The unit features I-Memory, a self-learning habit algorithm which will ensure homeowners have hot water when they need it and save energy when they don’t. It also features integrated Wi-Fi and a Comfort Link App that connects to a local internet network to remotely monitor and control the water heater through a free mobile app.
The Hybrid Builder Heat Pump has five operation modes to suit different water heating demands. The Comfort mode is the default factory setting. Green, Fast, Electric and Vacation are other modes that provide premium flexibility. A boost function allows for a single heat up cycle, using the heat pump and elements to decrease recovery time.
The unit includes a user-friendly LCD display, is Ecoport certified, and includes a full flow brass drain valve for quick and easy drainage and a factory-installed temperature and pressure relief valve. Dual backup incoloy heating elements add reliability.
A heavy gauge steel tank provides years of trouble-free service, and a glass-lined tank with DuraGlas™ fired at 1600˚ F adds optimum protection from corrosion and includes a powered anode rod as a standard feature. The unit comes with a 10-year limited warranty on tank and component parts.
The Hybrid Builder Heat Pump Water Heater adds up to 75 percent energy savings vs. standard electrics, has high efficiency up to 3.81 UEF and 87-gallon FHR, and meets Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance (NEEA) Tier 3 Advance Water Heater Specification. Additionally, as with all of the American Standard Heat Pumps, it operates at a super-quiet 49.1 decibels.

Bradley Company now combines space-saving access to both tempered water and tepid water with its 2-in-1 Navigator® Thermostatic Mixing Valve. Engineered to deliver safe water temperatures to both commercial faucet applications as well as emergency safety eyewash fixtures, this model provides a complete and efficient single mixing valve solution.
With its innovative combination of two valves in one, the Navigator TMV saves on installation time and conserves space under sinks. During regular faucet use, the TMV delivers tempered water for uses such as handwashing; in an emergency, the valve delivers tepid water to the emergency safety eyewash to meet the ANSI/ISEA Z358.1 standard for the required 15-minute flush.
The Navigator TMV is ASSE 1070 and 1071 Certified, and includes a 3/8″ compression fitting to faucet. A reliable liquid-filled thermostat ensures safe water temperature to the eyewash, and a separate wax filled thermostat delivers safe water temperature to the faucet.
With its built-in safety features, the cold water bypass on the eyewash assures cold flow if hot water fails. Navigator TMV also offers anti-scald protection with positive shutoff of hot supply when cold supply is lost.
Designed for reliable precision, Navigator TMVs deliver accurate temperature control to within ± 3° and features an adjustable set point within temperature range.
Ready for easy direct mounting to walls, all materials are 100% factory assembled and tested.
Bradley Halo Eyewash Solutions
Pair Bradley’s 2-in-1 Navigator TMV with Bradley’s industry leading eyewash solutions. Halo™ eye and eye/face wash arms users with the most effective emergency relief available. Halo provides 20 percent better protection than any model on the market. With a more uniform and complete spray pattern, and exclusive features that increase hygiene, users attain the greatest contaminant relief and protection available.
Further optimize space in your workspace or laboratory with Bradley’s new combined Halo™ Swing-Activated Faucet and Emergency Eyewash. This dual design features a gooseneck faucet for regular use, such as handwashing, and a built-in emergency eyewash featuring Halo technology.
Whichever eyewash or faucet model you choose, Bradley is the only manufacturer that can provide a single valve to provide both tepid water and tempered water to faucet/eyewash applications. All other manufacturers require two different valves for the application, which costs more money, time, and space under the sink for these types of applications.

With a Cold-Shot, you don’t have to drain water lines, sprinkler systems, or hot water systems before cutting pipe or tubing. Our pipe freezing tool keeps a fully pressurized system operating while you make repairs.
The Cold-Shot pipe freezing tool freezes liquids in metal and plastic pipes ranging from 1/8″ through 2″ (10mm to 60mm) using carbon dioxide (CO2). Dip tube-type CO2 cylinders are available from any welding supply house.
The Cold-Shot works faster than “refrigerator-type” units, is more compact and less expensive. It’s faster and uses less CO2 than “bag-type” pipe freezers, because the freeze head makes a better seal around the pipe. In five minutes you’re ready to go to work on 1/2″ copper tubing, and just three minutes for cast iron pipe.
