expansion of the pipes due to high temp. if not installed correctly the results will be damaging and in some cases fatal
It does things to the things in the things the pipes are made out of if you get me
The pips in a steam heating system need to be insulated to prevent condensation. Condensation can lead to mold and or freezing of the steam pipes in the winter.
When the steam hits colder piping it turns to condensate and the steam hitting the water (condensate) produces hydraulic shock waves.
Generally, steel pipe, not less than Sch. 40, A-53 or A-120 ERW or DOM. Steam Condensate pipe is sometimes specified at Sch. 80. Steam pipes normally black steel sometimes copper tubing Depending on the pressure what wall thickness is required I installed piping black steel schedule 40 to schedule 120 with steam valves rated to 3000 #
it depens on the pressure exerted on the walls of the pipe , a higher press. is always dangerous
steam pipes.
The steam flows through a grill of pipes and the heat radiates from the pipes to the room.
Steam carrying pipes
avoid the pipes that shoot steam it will happen in the third and fifth rescue.
Through steam pipes.

Insulation for steam pipes helps to conserve energy by reducing heat loss, improves safety by preventing burns, and maintains consistent temperatures for efficient steam distribution.
For expansion and contraction.
In a steam heating system, the pipes transport steam or water vapor to the radiators to heat the building. Insulating the pipes reduces the amount of heat lost to the surrounding environment. Any heat lost in the pipes cannot be used to heat the radiators, and causes the system to be less energy efficient.
Steam can exist at various temperatures. Steam at a certain pressure can also exist at various temperatures.
One that installs or repairs equipment (such as steam pipes) for heating, ventilating, or refrigerating systems
