Product Information

I have just had to deal with an incident a work, a subby used a cheap auto air vent on the glycol side of a gshp install. Middle knob fully screwed in - automatic venting (it will shut off automaticaly when there is no more air in the radiator). Well, if you have ever felt that your radiator is cold at the top and hot at the bottom, it is a clear sign that there is air trapped inside.

Within a day all noises eliminated, all rads hot, hours spent bleeding rads a thing of the past, best few quid i ever spent, great product.

These are simple poppet valves, operating by direct float action and sealing against the upper valve seat. Browse through our wide range of radiator bleeding valves to find the perfect fit for your heating system.By fitting these valves, you can rest assured that your radiators will stay free from trapped air, allowing your heating system to run much more efficiently. It also reduces corrosion, system noise and provides a maintenance free system - dispensing with the need for radiator keys. If air is trapped within the boiler this may cause pump cavitation or boiling and overheating within the heat exchanger.

Caleffi actually offers air vents with a check to eliminate sucking air in but I believe they are vertical only. a b "Automatic Discharge Manual Discharge Automatic Air Vent Valves Manual Valves for Discharging Air from Radiators" (PDF).I was looking at the Taco 417-3 but I can't determine if it only lets out air during filling of the system or also during normal operation. They may be installed at the highest point in a system, but in a system with pumped circulation this is rarely necessary.
