Yes...Unlike most installers, I like to do every boiler a little different. When I have a system with a lot of banging & Wet Steam, I go as HIGH as possible to roll it around & dry it out. Mad Dog

@Mad Dog_2 Why the extra drip off the header?
Trying to squeeze the best out of a Weil-McLain JB-5 running a 1912 1 pipe system.

Its hard to see, but there is an 1 1/4" counter flow radiator branch that disappears in to a bad corner. I didn't want issues with it, so I dripped it. Mad Dog

Love the high header. How did you find this job? System must have had bad symptoms for HO to seek a solution after just 1 year.
