Not All Scary Things Happen on Halloween...

For facility managers, the real nightmares happen when:

🧟 A pipe bursts at 2 AM on a holiday weekend
👻 Water damage leads to six-figure insurance claims
🕷️ Mold starts growing behind the walls
🦇 Emergency plumbers charge triple overtime rates
💀 Your entire building shuts down for "urgent repairs"

Don't let plumbing failures haunt your facility.

McGuire's ProWrap provides the protection that keeps the real monsters away:

✅ Anti-microbial technology that stops fungal growth
✅ Leak prevention that saves you from water damage nightmares
✅ Vandal-resistant design that can't be tampered with
✅ Long-lasting durability that won't come back to haunt you

This Halloween, the only thing scary should be the decorations—not your plumbing system.

Have a safe and happy Halloween! 🎃

The McGuire ICV Defender™ is a spring-actuated integral check angle stop — engineered to our heavy pattern specification and designed as a last line of defense against reverse flow and cross-connection contamination at the fixture.

For the engineers and specifiers:
✔ ASME A112.18.3 certified for backflow protection
✔ Brass bar stock body, stem, spindle, and bonnet
✔ Stainless steel 316 spring
✔ EPDM peroxide-cured purple washers — resistant to high temps, chlorine, and chloramines
✔ Completely serviceable, no third-party components
✔ Unique logo markings so inspectors can verify what was specified is what was installed

Available in IPS, sweat, and compression. Protecting potable water since 1952 — one fixture at a time.

Since 1952, McGuire has done one thing exceptionally well: moving water from place to place — and stopping it exactly when you need to.

Our heavy pattern stop valves are machined from brass bar stock. Full brass stems — no plastic. Because when a building owner needs to shut off supply to a fixture at 2 AM, that valve has to turn.

Spec highlights:
✔ All-brass construction, machined from bar stock
✔ EPDM peroxide-cured purple washers built for chlorine, chloramines, and high heat
✔ ASME and UPC approved
✔ Available across lavatory and closet supply configurations

Engineers spec McGuire because the valve installed matches the valve on the drawings. Every time.

This week is National Healthcare Quality Week (October 18–24) — and while most people think of quality in terms of clinical care, there's an entire layer of quality that happens behind the walls.

The plumbing system in a hospital is one of the most critical — and most overlooked — components of patient safety. Clean water at every fixture. Backflow prevention at every cross-connection point. Reliable shutoff at every supply. ADA-compliant access at every lavatory.

When those systems fail, quality of care is compromised before a clinician ever enters the room.

McGuire builds the products that healthcare facilities depend on to protect patients, staff, and visitors:

☘️ ICV Defender — integral check valve protection against cross-connection contamination at every fixture
☘️ Certified stop valves — reliable emergency shutoff, machined from solid brass
☘️ ProDrain™ & Saniguard® — ADA-compliant drains and protective covers that keep patients safe from burn and contact hazards
☘️ Stainless steel strainers — SS316 corrosion resistance for the harshest healthcare environments

To every healthcare quality professional — the nurses, administrators, facilities engineers, infection preventionists, and quality teams working to keep patients safe — thank you. Your work saves lives. Every single day.

And to the facilities teams keeping the infrastructure behind the care running — we see you too. ☘️

Nearly 60% of the nation's 100 largest school districts lost students in 2024-2025. But here's what most people miss — declining enrollment doesn't mean declining facility needs.

A new report from — The AS&U 100 2026 — highlights how shifting enrollment is forcing districts across the country to rethink facilities planning. Some systems are consolidating. Others are modernizing aging buildings. And many are doing both — upgrading infrastructure in older schools while balancing tighter budgets tied to lower student counts.

Here's what that means for the plumbing industry:

🔹 Modernization projects are replacing new construction as the primary capital investment for many districts
🔹 Aging plumbing systems in schools built decades ago need upgrading to meet current codes and safety standards
🔹 Water quality and backflow prevention remain critical — fewer students doesn't mean less responsibility
🔹 ADA compliance continues to drive fixture and trim upgrades across renovated facilities

At McGuire, we build the products that school modernization projects demand — certified stop valves, ICV Defender backflow prevention, ADA-compliant ProDrain® lavatory drains, Saniguard® protective covers, and complete fixture trim packages.

Whether it's a brand-new school or a 50-year-old building getting a second life — the plumbing behind the walls has to perform. For the students. For the staff. For the community.
