Marine Engine Fresh Water Flushing System:

Marine Engine Fresh Water Flushing System, without correct maintenance the cooling system within your marine engine can quickly block with salt deposits and if left can cause serious damage. Not only will salt corrosion eat away the inside of your engine but it also restricts the water flow resulting in ineffective heat exchange that can lead to serious overheating issues.

Marine Engine Fresh Water Flushing System, without correct maintenance the cooling system within your marine engine can quickly block with salt deposits and if left can cause serious damage.

Not only will salt corrosion eat away the inside of your engine but it also restricts the water flow resulting in ineffective heat exchange that can lead to serious overheating issues. Here at Santa Barbara marine diesel mechanic,

the best way to keep your marine engine cooling system maintenance to a minimum, is to flush your engines saltwater system after each use with a fresh water flushing system,

we custom designed a Fresh water flushing system. a couple years back and have installed many of them in all different size vessels with great success,

convenience and ease of use are its top features, best in the business for Fresh water flushing systems.

SB marine mechanic installed a custom, Fresh water flushing system. a couple months back for a customer where the water pressure at the dock was sufficient enough were we used a single quick connect to be able to flush 2 main engines and a generator all at the same time.

freshwater flushing is an important maintenance practice. saltwater marine organisms can cause clogs in the engine, and saltwater or brackish water can cause corrosion. Flushing your marine engine with fresh water will help prevent these issues.

  • Flush your boat engines safely and easily

  • Convenient outside quick connect, No need to drag hose into engine room

  • No need to enter engine room to shut off (Seacock)

  • Check valve automatically shuts off hull intake of saltwater when freshwater water pressure is applied.

  • Spring loaded check valve prevents air from entering the system.

INSTRUCTIONS:

  • Connect while engine is running.

  • turn on fresh water allow to flush for 5 minutes.

  • shut off engine and turn off fresh water.

  • it’s that simple.
