FIA Videos
For those that are interested the B & G rep in New England is FIA (Fluid Industrial Associates) has a bunch of you tube videos I found. There are at least 2 with Gil Carlson in them (older videos) discussing primary/secondary and point of no pressure change.
Pretty cool.
Pretty cool.
A Thankyou
This is a big thankyou to @Erin Holohan Haskell and @DanHolohan , who for all these years have given us Wallies a place to call home ... a civil place to interact with other like-minded folks. You deserve recognition as the community builders, patient teachers, and amazing humans that you are. Thankyou! 
Yours, Larry

Re: Help please! Drastic change in glass gauge level from off to on
Probably needs skimming
The piping may be too small.
What is the EDR capacity of the boiler
More IMPORTANT
With 2 equalizers the difference in pressure between the two steam headers could have something to do with the unstable water line

Re: Occupation
I remember the First time meeting Gary Wilson at a Jim Davis & Al D Ambola (RIP PAL) Somewhere deep in Penna . His beautiful young wife was there, met Mark Hunt & Darin Cooke (USAF Iraq & Afghanistan) in person, Jody Litten (Lost Touch). We all found out about this Carbon Monoxide Seminar at HH.COM The Wall. It was a great bonding & weekend of Camraderie, Education, Imbibing till all hours. Gary and I had just went out on our own, so this was 1999-2000ish. At its peak, Triple Crown P & H employed 5 Plumbers 1 helper and an office manager until 2008 Depression. With a Ginormous Mortgage, 3 Catholic School tuitions, after a great 12 year run, I went back to The Union. Very proud of you Gary. You done good, boy, real good 👍. Mad Dog 🐕

Re: Occupation
Grew up in the HVAC world with dad and grandfather in the business. Graduated college and went into commercial refrigeration for a year, then spent 20 years in the commercial market doing building automation mainly heating and chiller plants. Got tired of that and became a career firefighter at 40. Now on my days off work for small company doing hydronics, steam and the oil service nobody in the area wants to deal with lol.
Re: Occupation
@clammy, sounds like you did it all. A lot of experience and a lot of hard work. Congratulations.
Dunham Bush was the best back in the old days they did everything and had good engineering. They sold a boiler line, pumps, steam traps, air conditioning, refrigeration and oil and gas burners. You name it. They invented the forced draft flame retention burner back in the 50s. They were using 3450 blower motors and oil pump pressure up to 300psi before anyone else had a clue. I am certain they have many C-120 & C-240 burner from that era still running
The company I worked for was a dealer for their combustion products. I was lucky enough to visit the old factory in Harrisonburg, VA in the early 70s. Too bad it's all gone now. Moved to Malaysa I think.
