Hot Wtr Float Vent : Amazon.ca: Tools & Home Improvement
Hot Wtr Float Vent : Amazon.ca: Tools & Home Improvement
www.amazon.ca
An air bleed vent for my heating system. I had replaced the original a few years back with whatever new fangled one the local market had, but this is exactly the same one that came out of my system (and looks like it might be the original) so I couldn't resist grabbing this over some slightly less expensive modern design ones.
(This is the style that I put in a few years ago that's already leaking..... https://www.amazon.ca/Hydro-Master-...43614&pd_rd_wg=mOywg&pd_rd_i=B07PQFWWZC&psc=1 )

Those ones are only for trapped piping or manifolds. The one you want for the boiler is this.

Inside the brass air seperator is a stainless screen that pulls micro air bubbles from the boiler loop. After a few days all the air is gone from the water. The one you used will not do that. It's simply for trapped air. Oxygen causes corrosion. If the one you used is for releasing trapped air in a section of the heating system it's fine. Those are exactly the ones I use.
The photo is a boiler I rebuilt last week.

On something like that, would I be able to block off the two side inlets and put a 1/8 on the bottom? My setup comes directly off of the top of the boiler as opposed to being inline with the pipes. (Pretty sure the one I posted is what this shipped with back in the '60s / '70s )
No that tee shaped one needs to be inline before the pump and the expansion goes on the bottom. The idea is the water flowing through it captures all the air from the system. Pretty much required to protect the heating system properly.
new phone (moto g8 power), case, micro USB to USB C adapter 2 pack, and some USB-C cables for said phone
Cancelled the Amazon order for the Asus 6700XT TUF as I was able to get a MSI 3070 non-LHR for $900 on Kijiji this morning. $210 cheaper. Better performer. And 20% faster @ mining.
Polymeric sand and a pegboard to get my tools in order. Still holding out hope for a new GPU in the spring time
Sony xm3
our business network group requires weekly training, minimum of an hour of podcasts, been wanting a headset for music for awhile so figured the xm3 at 275 would do the job. Really wanted the xm4 but couldn’t justify the extra money. I should have got the xm4 a few weeks ago when I saw them for 399
