    How do I...

    calculate the EDR (sq feet) for baseboard steam? The steam radiators are easy enough with the tables at various sites (height, number of columns, sections etc), but I don't know what to use for bb steam/ linear foot.

    This is a one-pipe steam system, with mixed radiators/baseboard. I'm trying to get an idea of how big a replacement boiler I might need.

    Thanks for any info.
