I do

not have my code book here at home but I believe it has to do with boiler blow down. If you don't have an answer by tomorrow morning I'll look it up.

But I also believe it is a boiler related issue.

MA has it's own code. I thought it was 150 degrees also but i can't find it anywhere other than the section about boiler blow off tanks which is in 10.21 1 (b)

What's the point?

About an hour ago my wife drained boiling potato water down the drain. She remarked again that Martha Stewart said to add cold wter to boiling water to protect plumbing.I was wondering if the pipe makers thought of this! What is the premise of the Reg.?? Enjoy the 4th. Our very own Sarah P. quit today.
