The heating system in our home needs a lot of valves. The role of the valve can play to regulate the flow of water supply and return, but also can play the role of closing the water supply when maintenance. So the valves in the heating system must be selected properly. So for the valve in the heating system, which do we choose? Household miscellaneous altar on the following issues as an example to give everyone analysis of the choice of valves in the heating.
Is the domestic heating ball valve or gate valve good?

Whether a ball valve or gate valve is a good choice for home heating is a question of valve type selection for heating systems. Personal opinion is that gate valves in heating systems are better than ball valves. As to why give this answer, we need to from the heating system water quality characteristics, valve installation and maintenance, the size of the space occupied, and is the service life of the valve and other four aspects to comprehensively consider.

First, the characteristics of water supply and return from the heating system

The characteristics of the water in the heating system refers to the quality of the supply and return water. As we all know, the water in the heating system is full of impurities. For example, the filter of heating in our home should be cleaned every year, and it will wash out a lot of mud. This characteristic of heat supply and return water also determines the choice of gate valves.

Cause analysis: Because the gate valve is adjusted by lifting lever, it can close and open the interior. Silt and sand in the water will not get stuck in the valve. The ball valve depends on the internal rotation of the ball, to achieve the Angle adjustment, and finally to open and close the valve. In this process of rotation, if there is sediment in the water, it is particularly easy to jam the ball valve, resulting in the closure is not flexible, tight.

Tips for use: in the process of using the valve, the ball valve should be opened and closed several times, so that the internal sediment may be washed away. And the gate valve is not often closed and opened, easy to cause the brake lever leakage.
