Boilers are heating-system components designed to generate steam or hot water for distribution to various building spaces (Figure 9.18). As water cannot be used to directly heat a space, boilers are only used in central systems where hot water is circulated to delivery devices (e.g., baseboard radiators, unit heaters, convectors, or AHUs).

Turn off the heat from the thermostat and allow the boiler to cool completely before filling. This is especially important if the sight glass is empty of any water. Check the water level in the sight glass. The proper level for water is within one inch of the center. Pull the handle of the water feed valve back to allow water to flow into the

My mother's steam heat boiler have a low water warning light. When it is on, the boiler will not turn on until the water supply valve is opened to add sufficient water into the boiler. This was OK when I lived there or when my father was younger. Now both of them are OLD and I live far away.

Boiler Safety. Workers that use, maintain, and service boilers know that they can be potentially dangerous. Boilers are gas-fired or electric closed vessels that heat water or other liquid to generate steam. The steam is superheated under pressure and used for power, heating or other industrial purposes.

A general rule of thumb is to have at least ten minutes worth of water available at all times. Here is what you need to know to figure this one out. The size of your boiler (bhp) the fact that one bhp = 34.5 lbs./hr. and that one gallon of water weighs about 8.337 lbs. Take all of these facts and plug them into the following calculation:

Many residential homes use boilers to heat water, and provide either hot water or steam for heating. Steam is distributed via pipes to steam radiators, and hot water can be distributed via baseboard radiators or radiant floor systems, or can heat air via a coil. Steam boilers operate at a higher temperature than hot water boilers, and are inherently less efficient.

Steam, Boiler, and Blowdown Pressure are the same. Combustion Efficiency is the % of fuel energy that is directly added to the feedwater and not otherwise lost or used. Blowdown Rate is the % of incoming feedwater mass flow rate that leaves the boiler as a saturated liquid at boiler pressure.

In addition, the flash steam will overheat the water in the boiler feed tank. Most boiler feed pumps are designed to operate with condensate temperatures less than 200 °. In some cases, the water could flash to steam inside the pump impeller and ruin the pump. If the condensate flashes to steam, the pump can no longer supply water to the
