SPIROTRAP ® DIRT SEPARATORS STANDARD VELOCITY THE ULTIMATE IN DISTRIBUTION EFFICIENCY
CLEAN SYSTEM WATER THROUGHOUT THE LIFE OF THE INSTALLATION The life and efficiency of a heating or cooling system is greatly dependent on clean system water. Dirt in the system can cause increased component wear and frequent breakdowns. Corrosion, pump and control valve wear, and reduced efficiency result in increased maintenance, unnecessary costs, and dissatisfied owners. Traditionally, strainers or filters that operate under high pressure losses have been installed to deal with dirt problems.
