Yes, but not the diamonds you find in jewelry stores. We take carbon (the source of diamonds) and electrically charge it. The, using tremendous pressure, we fuse it to a ceramic plate, creating a diamond coating that is clear and indestructible.

There is a growing concern about lead and other contaminants in our water that has led scientists to look for alternatives to copper plumbing. PEX-C is a crosslink polyethylene that has been used in the U.S. for over 20 years. Its unique composition make it stronger than copper and easier to work with. As a result, entire homes are now being plumbed with PEX-C.

First of all, the beauty o the DIAMOND Seal Technology faucet is that there is still metal where it matters: in the handles, spout and the hardest working component of any faucet: the valve stem. Many valve stems are made of plastic. Ours is stainless steel.
In addition, the InnoFlex waterways eliminate the need to buy additional risers. So the extraordinary advancements of the DIAMOND Seal Technology faucet are offered to all of our customers at an advantageous price.
Before we introduced our new DIAMOND Seal Technology, we put our faucets to the test. Hundreds of performance test actually. So we can say with great certainty that a new DIAMOND Seal Technology faucet will last ten times longer than the industry standard (ASME 112.18.1 standard 500,000 cycles). And the PEX-C waterways are made to last at least 50 years.
We're proud of the ball valve and the introduction of it revolutionized the plumbing industry. But we're always looking for a better solution. The ball valve design, although revolutionary for its time back in 1954, has room for improvement. In higher-end applications the technology is perceived as inferior. Wholesale showrooms and other channel partners prefer ceramic valves. Rather than simply meeting that demand, DIAMOND Seal Technology is our latest accomplishment in advancing the industry.
