Cholila Cover Backflow Insulated Cover (5°F) – 24 x 24 in, 7-Layer Thermal Barrier with Aluminum Foil

Winter-ready protection for outdoor backflow preventers

Outdoor irrigation components face the brunt of freezing temperatures. The Cholila Cover Backflow Insulated Cover is designed to create a warmer microenvironment around the valve, helping to minimize exposure to cold air and the risk of brittle pipes. With an outer size of 24 by 24 inches, this cover is built to shield standard backflow preventers while offering a practical, user-friendly fit for many setups. Rather than waiting for a freeze to cause costly repairs, this cover provides a practical shield you can deploy ahead of winter.

Seven layers of insulation built to endure

• Outer 600D Oxford fabric with water-repellent finish
• Two inner layers of non-woven fabric for softness and structure
• Two layers of PP cotton for durable thermal insulation
• Aluminum foil layer for enhanced thermal barrier
• Waterproof lining to shed moisture and seal in warmth

Security and ease of use

• Bottom opens with a Velcro seal to reduce wind ingress
• Two metal loops allow optional cable ties or small locks for added security
• Clear outer dimensions guide installation; please measure your pipe and allow extra space (about 3 inches) for thickness

How it helps in real-life winter scenarios

Imagine a chilly morning where frost lingers on outdoor plumbing. The Cholila Cover acts as a protective barrier around the backflow valve, helping to maintain warmer air around the pipe and reduce direct exposure to biting wind. While it isn’t a guarantee against every freeze, it creates a more favorable microclimate that can lower maintenance costs by reducing cold-related strain on exposed components.

What to know before you buy

• Size reference: the cover’s outside dimensions are 24 x 24 inches; thickness varies with pipe size
