Flow-Rite Marine Plumbing Parts & Accessories

Established in 1981 in Michigan, Flow-Rite Controls specializes in marine plumbing systems, valves, and other fluid control devices. Developed by the company's experts, many of them are rather unique and protected by numerous international patents. Convenient to use and reliable, these products are popular among many recreational and fishing boat owners. Essentially, Flow-Rite plumbing systems allow for filling or draining ballast, providing recirculation in livewell or baitwell reservoirs, etc. As requirements for the ballast or livewell system can vary, the company has developed numerous solutions to cover most needs.

In particular, there are several kinds of the livewell control system, and Flow-Rite offers different valves and actuators enabling you to control your livewell with just an easy flip of a switch. The simplest actuator allows you to choose between "Open" and "Closed" positions to drain the livewell or keep it full, respectively. More complex setups require a two- or three-position actuator with an automatic mode; turn it on, and with the boat off plane, fresh water will be constantly mixed with recirculated livewell water.

The third position turns on the closed recirculation when outside water is not desirable. Besides, there are other systems meant for high-profile boats or some specific cases, but whatever you choose, you can rely on Flow-Rite valves that feature very effective, unique construction, as well as on Flow Rite fittings developed for maximum dependability. Made of strong materials, these fittings are able to withstand the elements and can replace their leak-prone barb counterparts. The brand offers Qwik-Lok sockets, elbows, adapters, and other parts that fit many popular marine hoses and provide a quick, reliable connection. Certified according to ISO 9001, the company offers high-quality products at a reasonable price, and many of the Flow-Rite parts can be found in our online store.
