Jacobus Maid-O-Mist J6 #6, 1/8" Angle Air Valve
A Jacobus Maid-O-Mist steam radiator air vent used to release trapped air from steam radiators so they heat properly and more evenly across the system when the correct vent size is required.
Key Features
- Steam radiator vent, Model #6, angle pattern with 1/8" male connection
- Non-adjustable vent (fixed venting rate)
- Vent size: 0.0935"
- Temperature range listed: 140°F - 240°F (240°F max)
- Guidance for Model 6: venting capacity equal to 8 ordinary air valves, recommended for radiators farther from the boiler and in cold rooms
- Material listed: Steel
Compatibility & Applications
- Intended for steam radiator venting applications (radiator air removal/balancing).
- Model 6 is used for radiators farther from the boiler and cold rooms as part of balancing vent sizes across a system.
Installation & Operation Notes
- Installation should be performed by a qualified steam/heating technician.
- Proper balancing depends on selecting the correct vent size for each radiator location; follow the vent sizing recommendations when choosing where to install Model #6 vents.
Maintenance & Troubleshooting
- This part is commonly replaced or upgraded when addressing uneven heat, slow-to-heat radiators, or overall balancing issues in steam systems.
- If a radiator remains cold/slow after replacement, troubleshoot to confirm vent sizing is appropriate and that the radiator and piping can vent air properly .
- If a vent leaks or fails to vent reliably, replacement is typically the corrective action.

Quality valve and great customer service
This valve worked right out of the box. After bleeding the line of air and installing the valves I haven't had any issues. The new valves are quicker to respond temperature change; they also allow the radiators to stay hot a longer compared to the valves I replaced. Just be sure to follow the recommendation for size this company makes, it'll be a big help when deciding the placement of your valves.

I would not buy this again
I switched out over 80 valves and had to replace 1/4 of them already with in a year and half. The valves got stuck and would not open, cracked in multiple spots causing water damage, and have caused my energy bill to go up because the heat was not working properly.

I would buy this product again IF
The vent I bought last year developed a hairline crack and began to leak. This purchase is the replacement. If the same happens with this one I will switch brands and find something better

Did the trick. Super fast shipping.
I needed to replace a few air valves on my steam radiators. I never ordered from Supply House before. Their prices were the best I could find and they shipped it to me super fast. I'm not a pro - I'm not a commercial. I'm a real person and I gotta tip my hat to this website / company.

Maid-O-Mist Steam Air Valve
Would like also to be able to buy the top screw only which controls the size of the air valve opening. This way it make it easy to adjust the heat balancing of each room in the house without having to reinstall the valves.

I would buy again
This economic valve is very good quality, in my house it is a two-story with steam heater and I bought the valves according to the manufacturer's specifications, 4 # 4 valves on the first floor and 3 # 6 valves for the second floor , and my house now does regulate the heat properly, does its hiss but now I don't have the problem of cold rooms on the second floor.
