What else can I help you with?
What pressure should you have entering the hot water tank?
House pressure, 75 PSI maximum.
What are the differences between boilers and burners?
A burner is the part of the boiler that creates and controls the flame that heats the water. If you meant difference between a boiler and a furnace, a boiler makes hot water and a furnace makes hot air.
Is boiler and furnace are same?
No, furnaces are forced air heat. Boilers are hot water heat.
Why when you turn on the hot water in the shower no water comes out at all the cold works fine but there is no water or pressure on the hot side?
This is probably a pressure imbalance problem or you have air in the lines. see the related video link provided.
Why is hot air blasted into a blast furnace?
Hot air is blasted into the blast furnace to burn the coke (a cheap form of carbon) added to form carbon dioxide.
What is top pressure in blast furnace?
Top pressure in a blast furnace refers to the pressure of the gases at the top of the furnace. Maintaining the appropriate top pressure is crucial for the efficient operation of the blast furnace and influences factors such as the flow of gases in the furnace and the quality of the hot metal produced.
Do plumbers repair hot water furnaces?
Hot water furnaces can be repaired by a plumber. Only a licensed professional plumber should handle the task, and he or she should be contacted immediately, as a damaged hot water furnace can cause property damage.
Can you turn the main water off and leave your furnace on?
This depends on the type of furnace system you have. A forced-air furnace should be completely independent of the water system. An older, convection-based (no pump) hot water system will have an expansion tank, and will not need to have the main water on, except to replenish the system, which should happen infrequently. A closed-loop system could possibly over-pressurize as the water is heated, with the mains valve closed, and would trigger the pressure relief valve, dumping a few cups of water every time the furnace cycles until the system was dry; eventually, with the pipes in the furnace dry, the furnace heat would melt and destroy them.
Can you turn off water to oil furnace and use an electric water heater in its placethe furnace supplies hot water and baseboard heatbut i have a pellet stove to heat the houseso i would like to use?
Yes you can do that. I had an oil fired furnace that also heated the hot water in a coil inside the furnace. I got an electric hot water heater and had a plumber disconnect the coil in the furnace and hook up the electric hot water heater. No problems after four years.
Can you turn off the water supply to the furnace for a few weeks and still get baseboard heat?
If it is a hot water system and not steam, once it is properly filled & bled of air no more water should be needed unless there is a leak. Regardless of whether it is steam or hot water it is a Boiler not a furnace.
How do you know the bladder in a hot water heating system is good?
If the bladder is bad in your expansion tank the tank will fill with water. When this happens the pressure in your furnace will exceed 30lbs and your pressure relief valve will blow off.
What creates the air blast in a blast furnace?
Hot air under pressure
Does the boilder or furnace heat the water at first then supply it to the hot water tank?
No, a hot water tank heats water by itself.
What water pressure should be going into a hot water tank?
About 40-70 psi.
What pressure should you have entering the hot water tank?
House pressure, 75 PSI maximum.
Is it a problem to connect a furnace humidifier to the hot water tank?
no
Why is there no pressure in your furnace for your forced hot water system?
=Possibly because a furnace is scorched air and a "boiler" is used for steam or hydronics==1-The loss of pressure could be a leak in the system==2- Incorrect setting on the automatic feeder==3- Improperly sized expansion tank=
