steam header

RMA

hi all,

How critical is 24 inches from the water line of a steam boiler to the header? I have a hieght issue on a boiler replacement job. Will 18 inches be ok?

very critcal..

Very critical with the header distance, make me wonder if other near pipings is any importance to you...

Steamhead (in transit)

Try using

a drop header, it will give you more riser height and let you come down to meet the steam mains. Go here for some pics of drop headers:

Easy buddy

RMA is asking a legit question . Anyone that's done steam has run into height issues .

Just being here and aking the question makes me think near boiler piping IS important to RMA .
