Explore our collection of balancing valves and circuit setters for your HVAC system. Balancing valves and circuit setters are similar, but differ in the way that they function: balancing valves are operated manually while circuit setters are automatic. Circuit setters are not intended for residential use; homes benefit more from a balance valve. These valves maintain smooth flow operation within the HVAC system and regulate temperature to avoid excess energy usage. Our valves and setters are made from brass, bronze, and materials that are durable and resistant to rust; important qualities when working with plumbing systems.
