A Vortech series air separator consists of a cast iron body with a factory installed, replaceable Taco Hy-Vent. The bottom of the Vortech separator has a 1/2" tapping which allows to connect a standard diaphragm type expansion tank. Unique internal design of these air separators creates a swirling effect, which forms the flowing water into a vortex with a low-pressure center, two which the air is drawn. Accumulated air is vented though the Hy-Vent.
Taco Vortech air separator offers enhanced level of air removal, helps to maintain the efficiency of the system and reduce or eliminate noises associated with air traps.

Why don't we show the price?
While PexUniverse.com reserves the legal right set its own product pricing, some
manufacturers require internet retailers to display a price at or above
manufacturer's established MAP ("Minimum Advertised Price").
Since our price for this product is lower then MAP, the manufacturer does not allow
us to display our lowest price until you place the product in the shopping cart.
This allows us to continue offering our lowest prices while staying consistent with
product manufacturer's policy.
This process does not require you to purchase the product - it can be easily
removed from shopping cart if needed.
We understand that this is an inconvenience and are continually working with
manufacturers to educate them on how MAP affects our customers.
