Return Temperature Stabilizer
The Problem:
Heating systems cycle-off when a facility is unoccupied to conserve fuel and save money. During this time, the water in the system cools. Re-introducing this cold water causes uneven boiler expansion/contraction, stressing the material which can lead to failure.
The Answer:
Smith Boilers with Return Temperature Stabilization
Smith's flexible iron in combination with our Return Temperature Stabilizer equalize water temperatures to minimize stress and extend boiler life.
How it Works
-
Cold return water is distributed into all boiler sections concurrently
through a tube running through the upper port
-
Return water cascades past the heated water in the upper section
-
Heating the water to output temperatures is accelerated and tempered through each section
-
As heated water circulates through the main section, it offsets thermal shock
caused by the introduction of cold return water
