Burnham steam boiler

in THE MAIN WALL
Hello All,
Looked at a Burnham KV 84 oil fired steam boiler today. I want to add a hot water zone off the boiler but I did not see
any taps off the boiler except for the return in the bottom back and a drain in the front.
I looked quickly on the Burnham web site and nothing came up for the KV boiler.
Does anyone have any experience with these boilers? Do you know if there are taps under the jacket below the water line?
Thanks for your help.
Happy Thanksgiving

    It's a V-84. The K stands for "knockdown" which means it was shipped and delivered in a disassembled state.

    Thank you for that tidbit of information. I'll take a look and see what I can find.

    Found it. Looks like 1" taps in the back for an indirect I can use.
    Thanks again
