Just bought an OLD apartment building. Each apt unit has a small water boiler, gravity fed system. (each heats about 1400 sq.ft) One system has bad exchanger and needs replacing.. just curious if gravity fed boiler can be replaced with system that circulates using same radiators...just curious
thanks

    converting to forced flow

    If your talking about replacing the boiler and connecting it to a gravity system, this is normal and is done all the time. If you want to put a circ on a old gravity boiler, well ive seen that do too but not as often but will still work. I recomend a new boiler do to fuel prices.
