hammer banging away.

    Nope you can't,thank you Hatterasguy,i was hoping a few of the top steam members would comment on this.He has a tenant above the store who is always asking me if something could be done about the noise and the uneven heat,thought i could show
    some comments and maybe get it right.

    LOL! I stopped counting how many things were wrong after counting fingers on one hand.

    1. Colliding header (Main takeoff between risers).
    2. Equalizer not at the end of the header
    3. Bullhead tee on the mains (should be tied into header individually).
    4. Hartford loop appears to be a bit high, but that is hard to judge from a picture (I am looking at the LWCO for comparison).
    5. Mains are downsized
    6. And I am tired of typing....It just needs a complete re-pipe.
    How did they manage to make that riser connection on the side of the boiler back by the wall?! Why do people go to so much effort to do things wrong?
