The Watts 3/8 inch Series LFN388 Anti-Siphon Vacuum Breaker is engineered to prevent the backsiphonage of contaminated water into the potable water supply. It is ideal for low flow, non-continuous hot or cold water health hazard installations.

This vacuum breaker features Lead Free construction, a full-size orifice for maximum flow, and a durable silicone disc for tight seating and resistance to heat and water hammer shock. It also incorporates a lightweight disc assembly and atmospheric vent to prevent spilling under all flow rates. The LFN388 is suitable for temperatures up to 180°F (82°C) and is ideally recommended for applications that use small amounts of water.
