The “Dominator” in Dominator Valve (Set) actually is a manufacturer trade mark, registered 20 years ago, which is widely used as a category name.

Fan Coil Hook Up, Flypass and Miniflush are examples of manufacturer names for the Fan Coil Valve Package or refer to some of the functionality of the Valve Arrangement, e.g. Flushing Bypass Arrangement.

Bottom line, the different terms all refer to the same functionality of controlling the terminal unit and offering flushing & isolation options as a minimum.
