VALMATIC #48BW 2" SEWAGE AIR

Val-Matic® air release valves maintain your pipelines efficiency. Trapped pockets of air that accumulate in your pipeline will lower your flow rates and increase surges. An air release valve that automatically releases these pockets of air is an inexpensive and safe way to protect your line and improve its value. As the flow decreases in a pipeline, the pumps are forced to work harder and are less efficient; ultimately this could result in a total system blockage. Air release valves protect your line with minimal maintenance or management. Unconditionally guaranteed stainless steel floats housed in rugged cast bodies assure that your line is protected. The operation of an efficient line requires the use of an air release Valve.
