IFC provides unique, patented and highly disruptive water flow management products and solutions for the water Utility sector that measure and manage the finest droplets of water flow to a Utility customer. IFC's Low Flow Controller improves the efficiency of the Water Utility and provides immediate and significant financial returns whilst also improving water management in residential and commercial premises. The unique and patented Low Flow Controller (LFC) The LFC installed to any volumetric water meter provides the meter with the ability to measure low water flows from the first drop. Once installed, Water Utilities will be able to immediately bill and generate higher incomes from hitherto unregistered water. The LFC is a small (60mm) gadget that is plumbed in on the domestic (down stream) side of the water meter. It utilises a clever magnetic valve to generate back pressure in the water flow which when released allows the meter to record every drop of water. This same valve also acts as a best of breed non-return valve, saving additional cost and any need to install a separate valve, and thus creating energy savings for the water company by stabilising the pressure. The LFC has been fully tested and approved by WRAS and has successfully passed all international standard requirements. WRAS Approval Number 1605058 - approved product
