Frost Control safety / drain valve 10mm Hose connection

About this product

The Alde Frost Control Safety / Drain Valve (3010‑430) is an official Alde component used to protect the hydronic heating system from frost damage. It combines a safety pressure‑relief valve with an automatic frost‑protection drain tap. When the temperature around the valve drops to approximately +3°C, the valve automatically opens and drains the water heater to prevent freezing. The drain tap can also be opened manually.
