Seems very well made.
Replaced a 10 year old, rust clogged, cast iron air scoop with this bronze beauty. Flushed and refilled the system with great results. This 5 loop, 3 zone system has never run so quietly. Hung a Webstone Pro-Pal ball valve with drain below the provided 1/2" FIP port with a new expansion tank, and I'm good to go.
Price was about the same as elsewhere, but I prefer Supplyhouse.com's website for the information and support they supply. Add their fast shipping and the balance tips quickly in their favor.

Non functional
I installed unit and noticed there was no air being purged from my system. I disassembled the unit to find that the float was not connected to the air release valve.. I then found the parts that keep the float in place, mixed in with the little tubes used for air separation. I was clear to me that there was no quality control during manufacturing. I bought a Caleffi unit that works perfect.. spend a few more bucks on something that works.

My plumber had me order this part because he thought it was leaking. They sent a new to me right away no charge. Turns out the part was not defective and they paid the return postage! The leak was the plumbers fault

I would recommend this product to everyone.
I received the air separator on Friday and installed it on Saturday. It worked perfectly. The installer of my heating system neglected to install one and it has caused me a lot of grief for several years. I am very happy with the way it works.

Thank you for replacing the damaged part so quickly. Time is money. Shipping is the limbo of all manufacturing and out of our control. Thanks so much.

I would definitely buy this product again.
First off great company to work with. I went to install the first one I purchased and of course it was the wrong size. Returned the original which was surprisingly easy. Zero issue installing the right size one.

Q: Does the air separator need to be located above the boiler when used with a wall mount condensing boiler with all the plumbing on the bottom?
Asked by Ken 13 years ago

-
Anywhere high up in your piping system that has central flow (before manifolds). Try to picture where air bubbles might collect in the pipe if they exist and place the device there.

Ken, I recommend placing the separator at the very highest point in the whole plumbing system. I've tried it above the pumps and above the boiler & have found that small amounts of air will still get to the highest point in the whole system, thereby causing bumping when they come through the pumps.

Q: Do you have to install a expansion tank below the air separator as I have a conventional type expansion tank in the system. And if so why>
Asked by 14 years ago
Add your answer
Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffThe air eliminator does not have to go directly on top of the expansion tank, but it is usually a good idea to install them close together at the "point of no pressure change."

Q: does the air separator attach to the bottom of the expansion tank on a radiant system close to the boiler
Asked by 15 years ago

Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffIf you would like to tie it in, there is a 1/2" female thread port on the bottom of this unit for your expansion tank.
