Main Vent Gorton 1 vs Maid o Mist 1

STvex · January 2015

Is there any difference between Maid o Mist 1 versus Gorton 1 in terms of Quality and venting capacity? Both look almost identical.

Thanks for the advice.

The capacity is the same, I use one of each on my main and have not had a problem in the two years they have been there.

IMO Maid O Mist are poorer quality. My buddy used them on his mains and both leak steam from the back seem.
