Delaware Inventor to Exhibit "(VKAD) Value Key Alignment Device™" at America's Largest Invention Show

PITTSBURGH... INPEX®, America's Largest Invention Trade Show, announces that Angelo Vitalo, from Newark, Del., has invented an attachment for water-service curb boxes. This patented invention will be exhibited at INPEX®, June 6-9, in Pittsburgh.

The "(VKAD) Value Key Alignment Device™" prevents stones and dirt from getting into a curb box when it is being backfilled. This handy device also minimizes the frequency that water valve boxes have to be dug up in order to turn service on and off. Since digging up a valve box in concrete or hot mix can be difficult, using the (VKAD) can save professionals a lot of time and effort.

Molded in polycarbonate, the (VKAD) Value Key Alignment Device™ is cylindrical in shape and measures 5-1/2 inches high and 3-1/2 inches wide. This device keeps a 3/4-inch water valve stem in the center of the curb box during installation. Additionally, the (VKAD) features a dirt shield to stop debris from entering the box when it is backfilled. The inventor is currently selling the device in Tennessee, Delaware, Indiana and New Jersey. (Suggested Retail Price: $12.95)

The inventor developed the (VKAD) Value Key Alignment Device™ using his background in construction. "I noticed that house water services were always being dug up because 3/4-inch valve boxes had problems during the backfill phase," he said. "I came up with this device to make dealing with these issues a little easier."

Vitalo is exhibiting at INPEX® with the hopes of finding a manufacturer or distributor.
