Re: How to add thermal purge to a boiler
I like the label on everything. this way when someone else needs to work on this, it will be idiot proof. But I remember someone saying that we are making better idiots now a days. And Mike, If you are a avid follower of the Holohan writings, you will know that putting arrows on the outside of the pipes is useless... the arrows need to bo on the inside of the pipes for the water to see, then and know which way to go.
Re: Purple primer mess
You could just sign the water heater "Jackson Pollok" and maybe increase its value by a couple of thousand dollars.
Re: tank bolts: there's what you got here there's bronze and then there's cooper . . . what about brass?

Purple primer mess
I was hooking up the condensate neutralizer on a boiler and I splatted purple primer on the new hot water tank. Any suggestions on how to get that off?
Thanks Jeffrey
Re: LOCHINVAR NOBLE KEEPS NEEDING MANUAL RESET HELP!
You are attempting to run that boiler at full-tilt boogie i.e. "we are using the hot water all 4 people at once"--without adjusting all of the proper settings. You are also running your system pressure rather high at 25psi. It will blow off at 30psi.--be aware. The installer probably never put up the outdoor sensor. You are missing a major aspect of this boiler's ability to operate at full efficiency most of the time--especially when those "kids" aren't there. Post a few pictures of the general plumbing layout for more comprehensive help from this forum. Use the manual or get a service person to adjust the boiler to proper settings and adjust AGAIN after "kids" leave.
I see one glaring problem in the above descriptions. You have a manual reset upper limit at 190, but the automatic cutoff upper limit is at 200? Really? What was someone thinking? The automatic cutoff must be below the manual, or which one do you think will trip first?Exactly what was going on my mind yesterday too. Should I flip the manual to 200 and automatic at 190?
Please...
