The outstanding performance and reliability of the Gorton 54 is achieved by a combination of engineering advances including Gorton’s proven and patented principle of air-to-water transfer through a syphon tube extending into the water line. This design is more efficient and effective in scooping air bubbles and pockets into the valve where they are quickly vented. In addition, each individual aqua disc in the Gorton 54 is specially pre-conditioned before being placed into the valve. This creates a molecular change that insures faster water absorption and quicker drying of the disc. These exclusive design features, combined with the extra-large capacity vent ports, give this valve unequaled venting performance.

The Gorton 54 may be installed in either a horizontal or vertical position to accommodate venting convectors, baseboard and other types of radiation, as well as venting those numerous locations on the system where small pockets of air commonly form.
