- Flo-Cheks

Taco Flo-Cheks have dependably stopped gravity circulation in forced hot water heating systems for over 40 years. Flo-Cheks open automatically when the circulator starts running. They feature a thumb screw to manually open the valve, and are available in a cast iron universal body and a bronze sweat in-line configuration. A unique, re-designed weighted check on the 221 and 222 models features an enhanced seating and quieter operation on high flow systems. Sizes range from ¾" to 2".

- Pressure Reducing Valve

Taco's Cartridge-Style Pressure Reducing Valve sets a new standard for performance and serviceability. All the parts are contained in a one-piece cartridge which can be easily removed and serviced without reducing line pressure or draining the system. A one-handed fast-fill button delivers increased flow to speed system fill times while its unique dial-in pressure setting allows for easy adjustment throughout the 10 - 50 PSI range without the need for an external gauge.

- Zone Valves

Taco Zone Valves, each with its own thermostat, save energy and cut fuel costs. They permit accurate temperature control of individual rooms or groups of rooms in residences or commercial buildings which are heated or cooled hydronically. Put heat where you want it, when you want it, via a unique bypass construction. Designed for fan coil and other heating and cooling units. Sizes range from ½" to 1 ¼" with connection of sweat and threaded.

- 5000 Series Mixing Valve

The 5000 Series Mixing Valve is a dual purpose mixing or diverting valve. It is ASSE 1017 approved, providing shut-off reliability on either a hot or cold water supply failure. The high flow and low headloss characteristics make the 5000 Series ideal for domestic water, radiant applications, installations with large variations in flow rate and supply conditions, and installations requiring tightly controlled water temperature. The valve's unique design and advanced thermostatic element ensures a stable mixed water temperature throughout the extended 85¡ - 150¡ F range. The 5000 Series provides fail-safe security and ultimate performance in a mixing valve. Sizes range from ½" to 1".

- Radiant Mixing Block

The Taco Radiant Mixing Block is a breakthrough in the design, control and installation of radiant systems. The RMB-1 is a complete injection mixing system, combining a variable speed injection mixing control, injection circulator, system circulator and air elimination in a single unit. You get unmatched versatility and performance as a result.

• Use as an outdoor reset control, a setpoint control or a delta T limiting control.
• Only four pipe connections and installation is complete.
• Does not require special piping, balancing valve, closely spaced tees, external control or complex wiring.

• Plug-in, Low Voltage Connections
• Solid Stage Microprocessor
• Replaceable Cartridge Design
• Maintenance Free, Wet-Rotor Circulators
• Bronze Casing for Open or Closed Systems

- Venturi Fittings

Taco Venturi fittings are designed to divert water flow from a given zone to the by-pass loop. The flow from the zone is partially diverted through the by-pass and then returned back into the zone. The Venturi Fitting creates a differential pressure that make some of the flow want to divert through the by-pass and back to the zone. The Taco Venturi Fitting can be used in up-feed or down-feed applications. The typical application for the Taco Venturi Fitting is to divert heated water through kickspace heaters, convectors, radiators, or base board. The Venturi is ideal for retro-fit applications where more radiation needs to be added to a existing job. Sizes range ¾" X ½" to 1 ¼" X ¾".
