Hydronic Valve
Comments Off on Hydronic ValveHydronic HVAC systems for heating and cooling operate at peak performance only after achieving hydronic balance and temperature control. The best way to ensure this is through hydronic balancing – a process of optimizing the distribution of water in a building’s HVAC system by equalizing the system pressure using hydronic balancing valves. RED-WHITE VALVE CORP. […]
Use of Balancing Valves in Hydronic Systems
Comments Off on Use of Balancing Valves in Hydronic SystemsBalancing valves are throttling devices designed to regulate the fluid flow through hydronic components. In hydronic systems (HVAC systems that use water as a medium to heat and cool areas of the facility), they facilitate the distribution of heated or chilled water to all terminals. As a result, the system is able to achieve optimal […]
Globe Valves vs. Gate Valves
Comments Off on Globe Valves vs. Gate ValvesGate valves and globe valves both serve important roles in applications that require control of liquid and media passing through industrial systems. As the most common valves used in industrial plants, they are often used in the same applications and are very similar in appearance, but they have different functionalities. It is important to understand […]
