The Taco Hy-vent is for sailboats and other low-speed watercraft. This nickel-platted brass vent is to be installed at the end of the vent line. It is a float-style vent/valve that will allow air out; however, restrict water flow in that direction (if any water or backflow is to come up the line from the seal, the vent will close off, keeping the water from entering the engine room). Once the water flow subsides, the float will open, allowing air to vent freely. This product is a great option for maintaining an air-free system and ensuring the engine room stays dry in the event of backflow (from prop wash, unusual external pressure, backing down, etc.)
PSs shaft seal has vent hose leading up 2’, open at that end. Water would go up and vent out causing woodwork water damage. Took 10 min to install the hy-vent and now no leaks!
Part exactly what was needed and delivery was quick.
I appreciate PYI’s quick response in correcting a mistaken shipment and getting it straightened out.
We installed this check-valve on several dripless shaft seals with good results.
I received all the parts I ordered quickly but unfortunately I haven’t been able to install anything yet.
Thank you
