Is an earthquake inevitable for Saint Louis?
That’s what the experts are saying. Even though St. Louis is 2,000 miles from California, the talk about an earthquake is becoming big conversation.
Missouri sits on the New Madrid Fault line, which experts say is getting worse all the time. They are predicting that St. Louis will have a sizeable earthquake in the near future. St. Louis officials are taking it very seriously, and have put together a new set of codes regarding earthquake shut off valves, and Seismic bracing.
If an earthquake really does hit like experts are predicting, an Earthquake Shut-Off Valve can make all the difference. How does it work? It’s simple. When an Earthquake Valve is installed, it is braced to the wall of a building. In the event of a tremor, on the first shake of the building, the valve closes, and stops the flow of gas.
Our valves have a 30 year warranty, and are each individually tested before they leave the factory. The best part is that they are made in California in the good old USA. They are not only UL listed, but meet the State of California, City of Los Angeles and ASCE specifications.
We stock 3⁄4” through 2” connections, and have 3” through 8” available with a lead time of normally one week.
Call us and let us help you size your valve.
…….We pride ourselves on the BEST SERVICE, PRICE, & AVAILABILITY.………
