The AY McDonald Unmeasured-Flow Reducer (UFR) is an innovative design that allows low volumes of water usage, previously unmeasured by any water meter, to be measured simply by batching the usage. Indicators show that 5% to 10% of total water consumption is lost due to low, unmeasured flows. This device has been in service worldwide.

The UFR can be easily added to most AY McDonald meter setters and resetters for easy implementation into your water system by adding "X" and a 3 digit code to the end of the plate number.

Thermal Expansion Warning – Creating a “closed” condition in a hot water system with the installation of a non-return barrier (such as a check valve or backflow preventer between the system piping and the public supply) can result in extreme pressure rises caused by thermal expansion and/or water hammer. This thermal expansion can damage piping, valves and other components in the system. The installation of a pressure relief device or thermal expansion tank can avoid possible damages.
