Air bleeder valves & automatic air purging valve installation procedures: here we explain how & where to install manual or automatic float-type air purgers or air bleed valves on hot water heating system piping, boilers, baseboards, radiators or convectors.
Where are Manually-operated Air Vents Installed on Hot Water Heat Piping?
Manually-operated air venting devices like the ones shown here are found on hot water heating systems at
- Hot water heating radiators at a high point tapping on the radiator; some radiator valves that feed at the top of radiators include an air-vent.
- Hot water heating baseboards at the outlet end of of loops that rise up, run along a floor, then pass back down through the floor
- High points on hot water heating system distribution piping such as on the uppermost floor
- Hot water heating convectors at the outlet end of the convector

Nailed it for the 90d version, also made in t form.

Maybe it identifies as they/them… good luck finding a straight version in that case.

Coin vent. I’m only aware of 90’s. If there is a straight version it would be some form of brass or black iron tee with the coin vent component.

+ 3/4 black iron or brass tee with a 3/4 x 1/8 bushing is a way to make it.
Honestly, you want the vent to be at the turn, which is why they don’t make the actual fitting that you are looking for.

This and I'm trying to stay away from such threads as no one here will listen to a pro.

sorrry - thought you could take it from there - looking for "radiator feed - T fitting vented" - it's a real oddball - if they go that direction they usually go to a vented shut-off valve combo
here's the more common vented 90d >>>>

It doesn’t identify as straight.

It’s a tee because there are three connections, even thought they are different.
