VALVE INSERT OVERVIEW

Mesurflo® Automatic Balancing Valves are the industry’s best, trusted by military and commercial installers. 

During a controlled hydronic system test with debris, the Hays Mesurflo® 1 GPM valve easily outperformed the competition. While the competitor’s valve clogged with debris instantanly, the Hays Mesurflo® valve maintained steady flow, demonstrating its reliability in real-world conditions.

SPRING-BASED DESIGN

Spring-based design wears over time, is clog-prone, and noisy resulting in a short lifespan and limited 5-year warranty.
