ph level highin steam boiler

is very common. The addition of make-up water with its mineral content has a tendency to raise the pH and also cause the water to become very dirty. This is reduced by the blow downs and skimming.

How much make-up water does this system use on a normal basis? What is the volume of the system?

Only if this were an aluminum boiler, would the pH itself be of a concern.

If you have further questions do not hesitate to call and ask for Dwight. 800-543-5975 Rhomar Water Management
