Air Elimination Devices

The Taco Vortech Air Separator(TM) is designed to provide an enhanced level of air removal in hydronic heating, cooling or combination systems. Air is quickly and effectively separated and vented through a factory installed Taco 418 3/4″ Hy-Vent.
The Taco Vortech Air Separator(TM) uses a tangential design to create a chamber of swirling water and air in which a low pressure area forms in the center. Combined with the Bubble Breaker Cartridge and a downward direction change in the flow of the water before exiting, air is quickly and effectively released upward and out through the Taco 418 3/4″ Hy-Vent.

  • Permits the continuous operation of an efficient air-free system. 
  • Allows fast system start-up without the need for multiple highvents that might drip. 
  • Eliminates callbacks due to annoying air noises, insufficient heat, and cold zones. 
  • Cuts energy waste and prevents air related control problems by improving water distribution and system balance.
