| Re: hydrogom valve clearing Jean mi, Check out Tecme's webpage. In the Hydrogom information section there is an update that shows the differences between the old and new Hydrogom valves. It appears that you have one of the new models. Cheers, Jay |

It appears that you have one of the new models. Cheers, Jay thanks for help. I've contacted martin from Tecme and he explained me that I had the lastest version of the valve. It seems in my opinion that this version is better then the old one because there is an o ring to replace the teflon seal. the teflon was not a standard part and could difficult to find in the future in case of a production cessation, the oring are standard parts that we will always be able to find. as for cleaning I managed to do it using white vinaigar, martin told me I could have used an untrasonic bath. in anycase I must now add a conic filter I had forgottent to fit in my 3/8-7/16 adapter . regards jean mi regards jean mi |
