"HYDRONIX RELEASES SHOK BLOK IN NORTH AMERICA"

Chino, CA - 10/27/2010 - Once you know what it is, you realize that its not only a great name for a product, but the name fits this mini powerhouse product perfectly. As water quality continues to suffer and health concerns continue to rise, the growing demand by consumers for water filtration devices continues to increase at a brisk pace. Consumers are demanding not just quality water at their tap and at their fingertips, they also want the assurance of a quality filtration appliance. OEM's looking for that edge not only in product performance but also in product features are now gravitating to add Shok Blok to their systems.

Chino, California based Hydronix Water Technology has recently introduced the Shok Blok Filter Protection Valve into their line of products and Distributors and OEM's have been raving about it. Shok Blok is an easy to use, economical device that limits water pressure entering a water filter, water cooler, drink dispenser, ice maker, coffee machine, or reverse osmosis system. The device limits the amount of pressure that goes into a system protecting it from damage and failure due to excess pressure.

"Considering that pressure spikes, water hammer and and plain old high water pressure can prevail in many regions, the Shok Blok Filter Protection device is an absolute must" says Rick Hsieh, President of Hydronix Water Technology. Hsieh goes on to say, "We realized that it's quite simply an economical must have layer of protection for any installation. This is why we introduced the product. To make things even better, when Gerry Zelaya our Vice President, came up with the name Shok Blok, we immediately knew we had a winning product."

The Shok Blok filter protection valve is available in 40, 60, 70 and 125 PSI pressure limits and is available to OEMs and through authorized Hydronix Water Technology Distributors.
