Introducing The 8000 Series Hydronic Installation Valves

Our 8000 series hydronic installation valves are a range of high-performance valves that have been meticulously designed to help you work smarter and more efficiently. These valves are are engineered to be the perfect solution for professionals who want to streamline their workflow and save time. They function as the final control element for hydronic systems, evenly distributing chilled or heated water to the terminals regardless of fluctuating system conditions.

A key distinguishing characteristic of our 8000 series valves is their capacity to predict the future requirements of the systems or devices they serve. We understand that maintenance and repairs can be a significant headache, which is why we have incorporated built-in valves and drains into our product line. These features make it much easier to isolate and service the valve, reducing downtime and minimizing the impact on your productivity.

Our new 8000 Series Hydronic Installation Valves are constructed with Dezincification-Resistant Brass (DZR) for better corrosion resistance, increased durability, improved longevity, and lower maintenance requirements. Each of the 8000 series product lines features blow-out-proof stems and virgin PTFE seats to maintain performance under high pressures. Chrome-plated balls control flow while resisting corrosion, and the 8000 Series is dezincification resistant.

The 8000 Series Hydronic Installation Valves are built to control water in even the most complex hydronic systems and use cases, including:

  • HVAC
  • Heat exchangers
  • Water return lines
