Heating System Equipment for Reliable and Efficient Heating

Reliable and efficient operation of any heating system depends on the quality of its components. In our online store, you’ll find everything you need: FLAMCO air valves, safety valves, radiator vents, magnetic dirt separators, and more. All parts are carefully selected to meet the demands of modern heating systems, ensuring safe, uninterrupted, and long-lasting performance.

Key Components and Their Use:

FLAMCO Air Valve / Air Valve / Angle Air Valve

These valves remove air from the heating system, preventing noise, reducing corrosion risk, and improving heat exchange efficiency.

Installation tip: Mount at the highest points in the system — on radiators, boilers, or manifolds. The angle version is ideal for tight spaces.

Safety Valve

Protects the heating system from overpressure by automatically releasing excess pressure. This is a mandatory component in closed-loop systems and boilers.

Recommendation: Choose a valve rated for the system's maximum working pressure, typically up to 3 bar.

Radiator Vent / Radiator Return Valve

Regulates the heat supply to the radiator and allows easy shutoff when needed.

Use case: Installed at the supply and return ends of a radiator.

Tip: A return valve simplifies maintenance without draining the whole system.

Balancer (Balancing Valve)

Ensures even heat distribution throughout the building. Especially important in systems with multiple circuits or floors.

Installation advice: Use with temperature sensors or measuring devices for precise balancing.

3-Way Valve / Brass Safety Group

Used for mixing or redirecting the heat transfer fluid. Ideal for systems with underfloor heating, buffer tanks, or multiple heat sources.

Materials: Cast iron for durability and high-temperature resistance; brass for corrosion resistance and longevity.

Application: Mixing units, pump groups, or distribution manifolds.

Magnetic Dirt Separator

Removes metal particles and sludge from the heating medium, protecting pumps, exchangers, and valves from blockages and wear.

Installation: Install on the supply or return pipe before the boiler.

Maintenance: Regular cleaning of the filter element is required.

Thermostatic Radiator Valve

Allows temperature control in each room by adjusting the radiator flow based on the desired setting.

Use: Ideal for improving energy efficiency and comfort in residential and commercial systems.

Important Technical Features:

• Materials: Brass and cast iron — durable, corrosion-resistant, and ideal for heating applications.
• Maximum working pressure: All components are rated for standard system pressures (typically 3–6 bar depending on the model).

Installation Tips:

• Flush and air-purge the system before installing components.
• Use certified professionals for installation, especially for safety and balancing valves.
• Regularly check and maintain filters and air valves to ensure optimal performance.
