The Cash Acme 22398LF VR20 vacuum relief valve is designed to protect hot water systems and pressure vessels from damaging negative pressure conditions. Installed on the cold water supply line, this valve automatically opens at 1 inch of mercury (Hg) vacuum, admitting air to break siphonage and prevent heater burnout or storage tank collapse.
The integrated dust cover protects the vent opening from debris and contaminants, ensuring consistent long-term performance in residential and commercial plumbing systems.
The VR20 closes tightly under normal system pressure and opens instantly when vacuum conditions occur. Each valve is factory tested to ensure performance and reliability before shipment.
