Spirotherm
Spirotherm manufacturers the industry leading high efficiency Spirovent coalescing type air elimination products and its extended line of Spirotrap dirt separators. A wholly owned subsidiary of Spiro Enterprises, Inc., Spirotherm has been developing and manufacturing products to improve water quality in the HVAC industry for almost 40 years. Sizes from 3/4” to 36” pipe, flows to over 30,000 GPM for commercial, educational, healthcare, industrial, and residential applications.
Spirovent Air / Dirt Separator: The Spirovent Dirt and Drain Air Eliminator / Dirt Separator uses the patented Spirotube medium to "scrub” the air and dirt from the system fluid and creates two low velocity, low turbulence separation chambers.
Spirovent Air Eliminator: The Spirovent Air Eliminator, using the patented Spirotube coalescing medium, “scrubs” the air from the system fluid and allows it to break free in a low velocity, low turbulence removal chamber.
Spirotrap Dirt Separator: The Spirotrap Dirt Separator, primarily applied in open condenser water systems, uses the patented Spirotube medium to create a low velocity, low turbulence dirt separation chamber. Dirt and sediment are then able to break free of the flow path and fall to the bottom for blow down using the factory supplied ball valve.
Spirovent Superior S600 Vacuum Degasser: The Spirovent Superior S600 removes, regardless of installation location, pressure and temperature in the system, all dissolved gases from the system water. After degassing, no further air problems can occur at any point in the heating or cooling system.
Spirovent Quad Hydraulic Separator: Unlike other products, which are empty vessels or include only a baffle plate, the Spirovent Quad VDX combines the features and benefits of the industry leading Spirovent air eliminator and Spirotrap dirt separator with a center chamber between the four nozzles. The unique construction of this combined unit allows for the removal of both entrained air and dirt particles.
Spirotop Air Release Valve: The Spirotop has a unique "dry" vent design that helps prevent the system fluid from reaching the spring actuated Viton seat and seal assembly, which is the cause of most conventional air vent failures.
Spirotherm - the world class standard often copied, but never equaled.

The Spirovent Superior S600 Vacuum Degasser Improves Hydronic Heat Transfer & Pumping Performance
The Spirovent Superior S600, a fully automatic vacuum degasser has a fully electronic control system. The Superior S600 offers numerous options, allowing users to achieve optimal energy efficiency, maintain a healthy water heating system, and save on costs.
The benefits of the Spirovent Superior S600 vacuum degasser:
Removes all gases, free air, microbubbles and dissolved gases
Absorptive fluid ensures the removal of trapped gas bubbles
Energy-efficient whilst still achieving the lowest possible gas concentration
Degassed (re)filling and sustained pressure
Warns before (re)filling becomes excessive
An extensive range for a wide variety of systems
Can team up with all common expansion systems
Two-year guarantee
Spirotherm Hydraulic Separator with Built-In Air & Dirt Separator
More and more HVAC systems are designed with two separate circuits: The primary loop with a constant speed pump driving flow through the boiler and a separate secondary loop with a variable speed pumps delivering flow through various zones.
When installed between the two circuits, the Spirovent Quad is the common pipe (decoupler/hydraulic separator). Not only does it eliminate the need for closely spaced tees, thereby saving on installation time, it also eliminates the need for a separate air separator.
The Spirovent Quad is completely filled with coalescing medium to effectively remove 100% free, 100% entrained and 99.6% dissolved air from both the primary and secondary loops. A large collection chamber on the bottom collects debris and strong neodymium magnets capture fine ferrous material that would otherwise deposit as black sludge in other system components.
Remove Harmful Black Sludge (Ferrous Oxide) from HVAC System Water
Spirotherm's SpiroCombi with Magnet not only removes 100% free, 100% entrained, and 99.6% of dissolve air, it also removes non-ferrous debris and ferrous oxide material (black sludge) using strong neodymium magnets.
Air in hydronic heating or cooling systems acts as an insulator on heat-exchanger and heating coil surfaces and reduces heat transfer efficiency. Air also causes corrosion, which produces debris that may clog the small passages of heat exchangers requiring costly repairs. A Spirovent Air & Dirt Separator, eliminates air and debris from the circulating fluid, resulting in increased efficiency and reduced maintenance costs.

Spirovent Air & Dirt Separators Remove 100% Free & Entrained Air & up to 99.6% Dissolved Air
The unique construction of the Spirovent Air & Dirt separator allows for the removal of both air and dirt particles from hydronic heating or cooling systems.
The patented Spirotube, the core of the Spirovent Air & Dirt separator, causes dirt particles of all sizes to sink to the bottom of the unit and collect in the dirt chamber, eliminating any blockage concerns. The air bubbles rise and collect in the air chamber before being released via an integral automatic valve. The dirt can be flushed through the drain while the system remains fully operational. The large dirt collection chamber ensures infrequent flushing.
