Steam replacement that is ! 6 section Bryant version of a Dunkirk going into a vapor system with a Hoffman differential loop. Adding a water feed valve (customer's favorite part), vaporstat, new Tunstall elements and 3 Tunstall TRV's, and a Gorton #2.
Poor guy's been filling er up 3-4 times a day when it's 25 degrees out. He finally got his financing in place and I'm full till next week anyway. Hoping his gas bill will drop accordingly, 250 a month on budget with it leaking for the last 3-5 seasons. He also turns the stat up and down EVERY time they come or go. Hopefully he'll get over that bad habit of heating all that iron from 60 to 215 four times a day.
Thanks to Steamhead for the info before and all the rest also for the encouragement to keep the steam. I'll be taking pics.
