Boiler Water Piping
The boiler piping system of a hot water heating boiler connected to heating coils located in air handling
units, where they may be exposed to refrigerated air circulation, must be equipped with flow control
valves or other automatic means to prevent gravity circulation of the boiler water during the cooling
cycle.
Boiler Inlet and Outlet Connections
All water connections should be in compliance with national, state, and local code requirements. Adapters
from
Victaulic to NPT are available from Harsco Industrial, Patterson-Kelley. The bottom rear connection to
the boiler is the INLET and must be used for the return from the system. The top rear connection to the
boiler is the OUTLET and must be connected as the supply to the system. All water piping must be installed
such that no stresses are transmitted to the boiler. The boiler
shall not
be used as a pipe anchor
