In this video, we provides a comprehensive comparison and teardown of the three most popular steam radiator air vents: the Varivalve, Vent-Rite #1 (Veri-Rite), and Maid-O-Mist.
-- What You’ll Learn:
How Steam Vents Work: A look at the internal mechanics, including bellows, needles, and bimetal springs that regulate air and steam flow [01:20].
-- Varivalve Review:
Pros: Highly adjustable and capable of venting large amounts of air quickly [02:39].
Cons: Prone to internal failure (the "rattle" test) and known for "spitting" water and gargling sounds [03:04].
-- Vent-Rite #1 Review:
Pros: Features a "tongue" for better drainage and a precise dial for balancing radiators [05:53].
Cons: Can produce a high-pitched whistling sound and a metallic "clinking" noise when the bellows expand [06:38].
-- Maid-O-Mist Review:
Pros: Uses interchangeable orifices for venting control and is relatively quiet due to its plastic internal float [10:33].
Cons: The plastic parts may be seen by some as less durable than metal alternatives [10:48].
