Ideal  Unique  Water  Radiator  Valve

Stock  No.  380


This  Valve  "provides  an  interchangeable  flow  and  return  connec-
tion at  one  end  only  of  the  Hot-Water  Radiator,  and  thus  wonder-
fully simplifies  water-heating  outfits.  Its  use  saves  fitter's  labor,
elbow,  pipe  and  fittings  otherwise  necessary  in  making  connection  to
return  end  of  Radiator.  The  use  of  the  Ideal  Unique  Valve  also  saves
the  cutting  of  joists,  and  extra  cutting  and  boring  of  floors  so  objec-
tionable to  architects  and  owners.  This  Valve  permits  location  of  the
Radiators  in  restricted  floor  space,  where  it  could  not  go  if  connected
at  both  ends.
One-sixth  of  a  turn  of  the  handle  fully  opens  or  closes  the  Valve.
When  the  gates  are  open,  all  the  water  is  forced  to  circulate  through
the  Radiator.  When  the  gates  are  closed,  the  Radiator  is  shut  off
and  the  water  flows  through  a  by-pass  in  the  Valve  body,  the  full  area
of  the  pipes.  Any  Radiator  may  therefore  be  shut  off  without  pre-
venting a  constant  circulation  throughout  entire  system.
As  there  is  only  one  connection  to  make  when  this  Valve  is  used,
measurements  and  "roughing-in"  work  can  be  done  with  absolute
accuracy.  If  necessary  at  any  time  to  alter  size  of  the  Radiator,  no
repiping  is  required,  no  new  holes  bored,  no  floors  torn  up.
