System Piping (continued) Method 1: Primary/Secondary Piping (Strongly Recommended) This method can be used in heat-only applications as shown in Figure 9.7a or with an indirect water heater as shown in Figure 9.7b, 9.7c. In this system, the flow rate through the boiler (“secondary loop”) is completely independent of the flow rate through the system (“primary loop”).
