Utilizing an enlarged body reservoir paired with heavy internal casting contours, this component slows incoming fluid velocities to strip away noisy, corrosive micro-bubbles before they can cause pipe air-binding or accelerate pump wear.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 12px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 15px; color: #111;\"\u003eBaffle Separation Mechanics \u0026amp; Layout Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \n  \u003cul style=\"margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 20px; padding-left: 20px;\"\u003e\n    \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eVelocity Reduction Trapping:\u003c\/strong\u003e Features a specialized internal baffle geometry that naturally strips lighter air pockets traveling along the horizontal top-half of fluid streams, redirecting them safely up into the venting throat.\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eDual Tank Expansion Integration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Standard-equipped with a 1\/2\" female NPT bottom tapping port to facilitate clean, inline hanging of a diaphragm expansion tank directly below the scoop, saving valuable mechanical wall real estate.\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eOne-Piece Cast Iron Durability:\u003c\/strong\u003e Engineered from a solid cast iron block that requires absolutely zero internal replacement components, field maintenance, or scheduled seasonal oversight.\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 16px; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003e\n    \u003cstrong\u003eSystem Requirements Note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Air scoops must be installed strictly horizontally to allow proper buoyant bubble routing, and require a 1\/8\" automatic Hy-Vent or air bleeder installed directly on the top tapping port for active air rejection.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Taco","offers":[{"title":"1\" \/ Female NPT Threaded","offer_id":42931546587230,"sku":"431-6","price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1-1\/4\" \/ Female NPT Threaded","offer_id":42931546619998,"sku":"432-6","price":42.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1-1\/2\" \/ Female NPT Threaded","offer_id":42931546652766,"sku":"433-5","price":105.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2\" \/ Female NPT Threaded","offer_id":42931546685534,"sku":"434-5","price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2-1\/2\" \/ Female NPT Threaded","offer_id":42931546718302,"sku":"435-5","price":255.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3\" \/ Female NPT Threaded","offer_id":42931546751070,"sku":"436-5","price":329.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0663\/7151\/8558\/files\/An_isolated_high-resolution_studio_profile_shot_from_image_8f66a4.jpg_of_a_Taco_cast_iron_air_scoop_showcasing_its_dark_olive-drab_powder-coated_finish_clear_female_NPT_threaded_horizontal_connection_port_raised_top-mounted_air_vent_tapping.jpg?v=1782146066","url":"https:\/\/nationalboilersupply.com\/products\/taco-air-scoops","provider":"National Boiler Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
