    Vertical vents are allowed to be terminated with a variety of ends, including plain straight pipe, elbow, or vent tee. Horizontal vents must be terminated with an elbow or vent tee. Similarly, a bird screen with 1” x 1” openings is recommended for termination. Patterson-Kelley does not recommend using a vent rain cap of any type.

    Ensure there is no air flow through the boiler when the blower is offline. An excessive negative draft in the flue piping can cause air flow through the offline boiler which may be strong enough to maintain closure of the air switch. © Patterson-Kelley 2020 Revised: June 26, 2020 2691000273 P-K Storm ST2500-ST4000 All Rights Reserved.

    Gas Fired Boiler Technical Service 1.877.728.5351 Appendix C – Water Quality Standards Quality Standards for Hydronic Boilers in Multi-Metal Systems Patterson-Kelley boilers are designed to be incorporated into any multi-metal hydronic heating system. All multi-metal hydronic systems require that attention be paid to water treatment.

    This strainer is not intended to remove fine particulate matter from the boiler system which will be discussed later in this appendix. 4. Patterson-Kelley recommends installing a water meter on the cold water fill piping. The intention of this device is to periodically monitor the amount of fresh water introduced into the system piping.
  • Page 98 (blended) sample. 11. Within the first three months after startup, Patterson-Kelley recommends collecting a follow-up water sample from the hydronic system. This should be compared to the initial startup sample in order to determine any changes in pH, Alkalinity, conductivity, etc.

    Maximum Inlet Pressure = 14.0” W.C. NOTE: Patterson-Kelley recommends installing an individual lock-up type gas regulator in the gas supply piping to each boiler. For installations where one master lock-up type gas pressure regulator will service multiple boilers, Patterson-Kelley recommends contacting the local regulator representative for application assistance specifying the appropriate lock-up type regulator and gas pipe sizing.
  • Page 100 The chart below represents the pressure drop (Ft of Head) versus the water flow rate (GPM) for the P-K STORM ST-2500 through ST-4000. This information is useful to help size an appropriate circulation pump. Keep in mind this pressure drop represents the boiler only, additional consideration is needed for any connecting piping, valves, strainers, couplings, flanges, etc.
