Why is my Samson 3244 valve leaking to the atmosphere?
The valve might be leaking due to several reasons: * Defective packing: Consider replacing the packing. * Adjustable packing not tightened correctly: Ensure the packing is tightened correctly. * Loose flanged joints or worn-out body gaskets: Check the flanged joints and replace the gaskets if necessary. * Bellows seal defective: If your unit has a bellows seal, it might be defective.
