Greetings; I am installling a new Utica steam boiler with two taps; Sorry for the simplicity of the question.  Can the skimming T be installed on either the left or right tap?

Thank you!

    Before installing

    look inside the casting and make sure the bottom of the tee is above the bottom of the section nipples.  I know it is not on Dunkirks and it may not be on yours.  If it isn't,you need to use a bush or reducing tee to move it up so you can skim all the sections.   This is one of those places where the manufacturer's directions are often wrong.
