DIRECT from U.S. MANUFACTURER Plumbing Nerds MFG. LLCIntroducing the All-New to market Sediment BusterSediment Buster is a water heater cleaning tool that cleans and drains empty water heater tanks. Sediment Buster is a multi-functional tool that breaks up sediment clogs, empties tanks with just air pressure, and stirs, lifts, and removes unwanted dirt, sediment, and minerals from the tank.Why clean my water heater tank?Maintaining and cleaning a water heater is often overlooked by many homeowners, who may only sporadically flush their tanks. However, mere flushing is insufficient.Your water heater tank acts as a holding place for hard water sediment and dirt. Water flows into the tank from the bottom and is drawn out from the top, resulting in the accumulation of dirt and sediment at the tank's base.As time progresses, corrosion sets in, water quality declines, and the adverse impacts of hard water becomes evident in your home's water supply. Regular attention to your water heater is essential to prevent these issues and ensure a consistently clean and efficient water source.If it has been a while, or even never since you last cleaned your tank, Sediment Buster will help!What are the benefits of cleaning my water heater?Removes sediment and dirtImproves the clarity and quality of your waterSave Money on your energy billsHeat your water up fasterIncrease your water pressureExtend the life of your plumbed appliancesAdd years to the life of your water heater!What does Sediment Buster Do?Patented Air Injection ProcessSediment Buster is unique because of its patented air pressure process that breaks up, lifts, stirs and pulls sediment and dirt from the tank. Air injection breaks up the clog, and then like stirring a glass of sugar water, it stirs your tank. Following each burst, the air blowing action then reacts like a vacuum sucking both water and sediment out together down the hose.Clear See-Through WindowEver wished to observe the drainage process without the hassle of removing the hose? With Sediment Buster, your desire becomes a reality. The transparent window on this tool enables users to monitor the drain valve, providing a clear view of the tank's drainage status right at the point of use.Full Port DesignThe full port design of Sediment Buster allows sediment and water to flow out easily. Combined with the breaking up of the sediment with air bursts, sediment is lifted and sucked out from the tank.Easy and Safe to UseNon-Intrusive Solution - Say goodbye to the hassle of resorting to methods like using augers or coat hangers—our process eliminates the need for invasive measures! And if you need to replace a restrictive drain valve, Sediment Buster still enables you to get the tank empty instead of trying to remove a drain valve from a full tank of water.Features & BenefitsSediment Buster offers great featuresPatented air injection processClear see-through window45 Degree DesignFull Port DesignWorks with any air pumpMess FreeNon-invasive processBreak through tough clogs, vacuum suck out dirt and sediment, and empty a tank with air pressureVerify the tank is always draining right at the drain valveFits most tanks in tight spaces or adapts to short hosesAllows sediment and water to flow out easilyUse CO2, Air Compressor or even a bicycle pumpOur swivel valve allows for a hand-tightened sealWhy do plumbers also love the Sediment Buster?Break through Tough ClogsSediment Buster originated from the creative mind of a master plumber who grew weary of the challenges posed by draining and removing full water heaters from basements. Rather than resorting to makeshift tools like coat hangers to remove the clogs, he conceived the idea of employing air pressure, and the Sediment Buster was born.Drain a tank upstairs with just air pressureWe conducted an experiment where we elevated a hose 10 feet and emptied a full water heater using nothing but minimal air pressure. With just 0.433 PSI needed to push water up 1 foot, a mere 5 PSI of head pressure can propel water through a hose up a flight of stairs. By injecting air at the drain valve, not only is the pressure maintained, but the drain hole is also kept clear throughout the process.Clear See-Through WindowOur master plumber insisted on a clear window in this tool. Even experienced plumbers can struggle to check draining when the end of the hose is 50 feet away or upstairs. The see-through window not only lets you see the draining process but also gives a cool view of what's coming out of the tank with periodic air bursts. It makes the task more enjoyable, turning it into a surprisingly interesting experience.
