Notes: Required Flow (GPM) = ** Output (MBH) x 1000/500 x ΔT
** Output (MBH) - Select Value for specic Boiler Model from Table 2.
See also Table 13 for near boiler piping sizing. Using boiler
antifreeze will result in higher uid density and may require larger circulators.

VI. Water Piping and Trim B. Piping System To Be Employed (continued)
c. It is often very difcult to accurately calculate
the pressure drop through the system.
d. In replacement installations, it may be nearly
impossible to get an accurate measurement of
piping amount and number of ttings in the
system. If system is zoned, the system ow rate
may drop well below recommended minimum
ow when only a single zone is calling for heat.
