in THE MAIN WALL
Good?

Aside from what's in the picture, there's no Hartford Loop and most of the system piping is copper behind the walls of this new renovation, but hey, waddayagonnado?

    I would have no problem saying, see ya later have a nice day…Clearly the boiler piping has issues, near the boiler…But what is as bad, is what they did with the pipes in the wall,during the so called renovation…As well as from the pic it looks like a tight space down there….Make up air, is lots of time a killer issue after the homeowner/ carpenter decides to add a playroom in the basement…Laws and codes are not there just to make towns and cities money…They are in place to protect the public…..

    It's not leaking? Is it? So that's a plus! :p

    P.S. @JohnNY you need to add a [/url] at the end of your signature. Your signature is showing up wrong

    Everybody knows, you have to put arrows on the pipes, so the steam knows which way to go...lol

    I don’t think piped like that even the steam does not where to go, if there is any….Besides that installer for sure can’t put the arrows on…Why, because he hasn’t a clue LOL
