Water Connections continued-
Typical steam boiler without connections available below the water line
is not recommended due to insufficient water temperature, especially
during warmer months when the space heating system is not
operational. Boiler water temperature at the bottom of a steam boiler
can be 50°F lower than the boiler's water temperature limit setting
during such periods.
FILL BOILER SYSTEM
1. On new boiler installations, do not purge the boiler or space
heating system through the water heater. During any boiler or
space heating system flushing, cleaning, or purging, the water
heater should be isolated to avoid possible attack on the coil
by chemical additives.
2. Purge air from boiler/water heater piping.
3. Check system for leaks. Repair as necessary.
