Boiler-side piping

(except

Gas)

continued

Use ball valve to blend some of

the water returning to the boiler

with the hot water coming from the

boiler. This will reduce the possibil-

ity of flashing (cavitation) in the

circulator. Slowly open valve until

temperature gauge 8 reads 200°F.
Lock or remove the handle from

valve after adjusting.
