Steam Radiator Vents

Our gorton vents have a float that closes them when they fill with water from wet steam.



Does anyone know a less impressive vent that does not have this safety feature so we can try a different vent temporally while we solve our wet steam problem?

    They'll most likely spit, however.

    wet rad vents

    thanks for the vari valve rec.



    at this point spitting would be fine if the radi doesnt stop working! 



    do u know if it has a design with vacuum breaker?.



    we really appreciate the tip!
