Heater Control Valve

[Motafinga]

I have an F250 PSD that used to drive me nuts with the hot vent problem so I went with a simple 15 buck 2 port valve that has a manual mechanism to run a cable to. I ran a manual choke cable through the firewall to turn it on and off. Works great total cost 25 bucks

That is a great idea, with the pull cable.

I was just looking up electronic controlled ball valves, but the prices seem to be pretty ridiculous... Can anybody find an electronic 12 volt ball valve in 5/8? For a reasonable price...

Don't forget about temperature and pressure rating.

I used this vacuum actuated bypass valve.

One side is 5/8" the other 3/4". I used this actuator to control it from a dash switch.

I have a GM van the return heater hose from the heater core is 3/4" and I used 5/8" to and from my heat exchanger.
