hi guys, is it possible to oversize an equalizer in a steam system? The supply header is going to a 2 1/2"main and the equilizer is recommended by the manufacturer to be 1 1/4" going back to the return. Would there be a problem running 1 1/2" instead? Would it be better? T.I.A. kpc

equilizer
steam goes up and water goes down, in my opinion, i wouldn't think this could be a problem.---AL0 -
It's OK
to make the equalizer bigger than minimum.
