    The left of that pic goes toward boiler.
    That elbow then on the right side of the picture slopes up and continues to the vertical pipe in the wall of first floor bathroom. It’s now propped up an inch or so

    said he used copper cuz was easier to connect between the other ends of steam pipe because of treads.
    Tell him your computer programmer friend said he should look into these things called “unions”

    Congrats on finding the problem! Hopefully you’ll be able to keep the problem from coming back...into your house...to work on your steam system

    @ethicalpaul - worth a laugh this morning!
    he said it was just easier lol
    honestly as long as it’s quiet now I’m ok with it.
    I did mention to him that I “consulted with multiple specialists” and to his credit he was not dismissive or defensive. He listened to me and approached accordingly n we got it in the first shot!
    @LS123 what heat loss calculation?
    Again- thank you! 
    This has been great!
    Be well!
