Spirovent spitting and not liking it!

Gasper · January 2007

We installed the boiler, 1 1/4" Spirovent air eliminator, etc. in 1999. Anyone know what would make it leak now? Can it be repaired?

There is no glycol in the system.

It's an old house with cast iron rads. It is a converted gravity system

I've been putting in the Sparco brand lately and I know they

open up. Do the Spirovent also?

well if it's....

and old gravity system it is possible that all the old sediment got caught in the vent...they have decent warranty. get the new part and replace it...it does come apart. kpc

Gunk and crud

Probably just needs to be taken apart and cleaned out. I;ve had several Micro-bubble types do this. Sparco, Spirovent, Danfoss etc. Just unscrew the top and clean it out. Usually it's just some crud that has built up underneath the valve seat in the float chamber.
