Design
The new Taco “Plus Two” Multi-Purpose Valve combines all the valve 
functions that are normally required on the discharge side of a 
centrifugal pump in a hydronic heating or cooling system into one body.  
It is a Shut-Off Valve, a Non-Slam Check Valve, a Balancing Valve, and 
a Flow Metering Valve, and now it is field convertible from a straight 
pattern to a 90 degree right angle pattern.  In addition the new “Plus 
Two” Multi-Purpose Valves have low pressure drops, equal to or better 
than any valve on the market today, and the stem seal packing can be 
replaced under full system pressure.  
With sizes ranging from 1-1/2” through 14” the new “Plus Two” Multi-
Purpose valves are made of Ductile Iron with stainless steel and bronze 
fitted construction to provide years of trouble free service.  Each valve 
is available in *150# psi working pressure with flanged or grooved end 
connections or *250# psi working pressure with flanged or grooved 
end connections (1-1/2”, 2” and 2-1/2” units are threaded connections).
