I have  8 ft of ( 1 1/4" ) baseboard  on first floor about 10 to 12 ft. from boiler that I just replaced.  now the home owner tells me it never leaked water from the vent. I changed the vent three times and it keeps pushing water     I am lost at this point

    Problem Steam Vent / New Boiler

    Hi- Need to know a little more info. What 's the make and model of the problem steam vent?  You mentioned that the boiler has just been replaced, what is the maximum pressure it is now running? Have you skimmed the boiler?

    can you post pictures

    of the new work and also what existed if you have it..baseboard really shouldn't be piped one pipe fashion..that said, the new boiler may be making steam much faster than the old one did..
