“I'm have never had a problem using this model. It gives the homeowner the ability to leave town for an extended period, knowing the boiler will not shut down on low water.”
“The product is well designed and made. It works well, especially if you have to run to the basement every few hours to feed the boiler when the weather is cold.”
“We use automatic water feeders as a safety device only; never a convenience item. Ideally once installed ,the water feeder should never work. If you are continually adding water to your steam system, you most likely have a leak which must be repaired. Fresh water contains a high concentration of Oxygen which will slowly rot away and destroy the cast iron in a boiler. We use the VXT series of water feeders exclusively, because of the Gallons Used read-out feature. At the end of every heating season, we like to see the digital display reading "000". That way”
