What is an Automatic Air Vent Valve?

Automatic Air Vent Valve is designed for use on heating systems.

How does an Automatic Air Vent Valve work?

Automatic Air Vent Valve is installed on the heating system, typically within cylinder cupboards, to automatically bleed air from the heating system. The device consists of a polypropylene float connected to a simple valve. When the build-up of air within the float chamber exceeds a certain level the float drops, opening the valve and releasing the air trapped within the chamber. As the air is released, water replaces it, and moves the float back into the up position, which closes the valve.

What are Automatic Air Vent Valves used for?

When air becomes trapped in a sealed heating system it can cause a wide variety of problems including excessive noise, corrosion and increased maintenance costs related to air locks that can prevent the system from operating effectively and efficiently. The Automatic Air Vent is installed on the heating system, typically within cylinder cupboards, to automatically bleed air from the heating system.

Applications of Automatic Air Vent Valves

Automatic air vent valves are most suited for heating systems and other closed circuit hot water systems which require an efficient and automatic removal of air whilst the system fills with water. A vacuum break is fitted onto the bottom of the valve in order to prevent an air lock forming and encourages air to be released from the water within the system.
