Streamlined Pressure Monitoring with Flomasta Rear Entry

The Flomasta 10 Bar Rear Connection Pressure Gauge is a vital hardware tool for homeowners and HVAC engineers seeking a clean, space-saving installation. At ECO Heat Shop, we emphasize that clear system data is the foundation of sustainability. By using a “rear entry” gauge, you can achieve a professional flush-mount look on control panels or boiler fascias, allowing for constant monitoring of your system’s health without protruding pipework.

This 10 bar (145 psi) gauge is designed to handle the pressures found in modern sealed heating systems and mains water supplies. It acts as an early warning system, helping you identify pressure drops that indicate leaks or spikes that could damage your energy-efficient boiler or pump.

Key Features & Sustainable Benefits

• Space-Efficient Rear Mount: The 1/4″ male thread is positioned at the back of the dial, allowing the gauge to sit flush against a surface—ideal for modern, compact UK utility rooms.
• Dual-Scale Accuracy: Features clear, color-coded markings in both bar and psi, ensuring you can follow manufacturer specifications precisely to maintain system equilibrium.
• Durable Construction: Built with a robust metal and plastic housing designed to withstand the ambient heat and vibrations common in boiler environments.
• Energy Efficiency: Maintaining the correct pressure (typically 1.0–2.0 bar for most UK boilers) ensures that your circulation pump doesn’t overwork, reducing electrical consumption and extending the life of your hardware.

Expert Tip: When installing a rear connection gauge, always use a small amount of PTFE tape on the thread to ensure a water-tight seal. Rear-mount gauges are especially useful for DIYers building their own solar thermal manifolds or monitoring the pressure differential across water filtration systems.
