The Gorton Vent People (Steamhead)

Steamhead

one of the best afternoons I've had in a while. Here are the faces that go with the names, left to right: Ann Marie Santana, office manager (no relation to Carlos); Linda Mast, owner and president of the company; and Ken Kunz, the "go-to guy" we all know. Don't know what to tell you about that funny-looking guy on the right.....

And unlike some companies

Gorton uses its own vents on the steam system in their building. Here's a shot of a pair of #2 vents at the end of one of the mains.

Question for Ken

Why can't I access your site from Canada?

I don't know the reason for it not coming up in Canada. Gorton-valves.com is the site. If you need anything just let me know. I can send you anything you need, including vents. (908) 276-1323 Thanks Ken Mad Dog-where your ears ringing???? we are going to try it.......we need YOU to field test it. May take a little while to get one in the field. I honestly thought you guys where kidding. I'll keep you posted.

Great Product!

Our check for last month's orders is in the mail. Discounts are us. We went to your steam products exclusively (almost)this year.

Since our customers started getting feed back from tenants that their radiators and risers actually heat, we are spending almost as much time installing your vents in apartments, & on mains, as we do working in the boiler room.

When you design the #3, please make it short & squat. Most of the ceilings we work under are made of material somewhat harder than yours. Keep up the good work.

Ran out of time, MD

dropped my Testo units off at their HQ in the morning, then had to stop by Ken Secor's and then get back to The Lovely Naoko. Next time definitely, when I don't have to rush back.

Is that a Gorton baseball cap?

Hey, I know the funny looking guy, he's not one of the Gortons... Or is he?

Thanks Frank for sharing your passion. Steam is a nice world

Gorton #3


As an additional feature on the new, Gorton #3 - how about a built in 0-5 psi pressure gauge built right into the side of it...It might be interesting to make note of the pressure in the mains at that point. Or you could make that an option as in the Gorton Model #3"A"

Dave Bush

Yeah.

Sign me up for a half dozen of those!

Frank:

I spoke to Ken earlier today and he mentioned you stopped by. Ken said it was a wonderful learning experience. Keep up all your posts. It's the best heating education I have ever had.
