Why We Choose Clack Control Valves
When specifying a water treatment system, it’s easy to focus on the vessel size or resin capacity. However, one of the most important components is the control valve.
At Industrial Water Equipment, we predominantly specify Clack control valves because we’ve found them to offer exceptional reliability, simple servicing and outstanding long-term performance.
Here’s why.

Clack valves have built a reputation worldwide for dependable operation in demanding commercial and industrial environments.
Their robust design means fewer breakdowns, less downtime and greater confidence for our customers.
Simple to Service
One of the biggest advantages of Clack valves is how straightforward they are to maintain.
Many routine servicing tasks can be completed without removing the valve from the vessel.
Benefits include:
- Reduced maintenance time
- Lower service costs

Readily Available Spare Parts
Downtime is expensive.
Because Clack valves are widely supported, replacement parts are readily available.
That means repairs can usually be completed quickly, helping customers get back up and running sooner.

Clack controllers allow us to configure regeneration cycles to suit each installation, including:
- Meter-controlled regeneration
