Am I missing something....looks like a steam boiler with the LWCO and auto feeder, seem to see gauge glass knobs...an expansion tank????? Is it just the angle of your photos or the "expert"???!!!???

It was installed by the called "expert"

Thad English

It isn't all bad is it? The 'expert's got the header at least 24" above the water line (he says tongue firmly planted in cheek).

What's the Taco circulator for?

I was wondering

what happened to this one. I remember it from a few weeks ago on the wall. Not to be a critic, but if the pump and related piping I see on the return pipe is for a vacuum loop, I don't see how you are going to exchange much hot boiler water to this loop. It is best if the supply to a vacuum loop leaves the boiler high below the NWL and returns low on the opposite corner of the boiler. Nice salvage though! Thanks for caring enough to make things right! Expansion tank on a steam boiler.........hmmmmm.........what were they thinking? Just my thoughts.

Taco pump

That pump is a zone for cast iron radiators in the basement,which is below the water line.
