Description
The Taco Comfort Solutions 3492-050-BC1 is a combination pressure reducing valve (PRV) and backflow preventer designed for residential and light commercial hydronic heating systems. By integrating both functions into a single, compact assembly, this unit simplifies installation, reduces the number of connection points, and saves valuable space in mechanical rooms and boiler closets.
Product Overview
This combination valve automatically reduces incoming supply pressure to a safe, preset level suitable for hydronic system operation while simultaneously preventing contaminated system water from flowing back into the potable water supply. The result is a reliable, code-compliant fill station that protects both the heating system and the building’s water supply.
