Will it clean? ACS Valves gets real messy — and then real clean!
If you’re good at making messes — but find cleaning to be daunting — ACS is here for you.
We don't like cleaning either.
It's why we engineered easy-clean features into our valves.
To prove how effective those features are, we decided to dump an entire spaghetti dinner, among other things, into an airlock (which we do not recommend, by the way).
Spoiler alert: It only took us 7 minutes to clean.
