1.7.2 - Condensate Piping for Multiple Boilers
The number of condensate treatment tanks required for multiple boiler installations depends on the total
amount of condensate produced by the system. As a general rule, CB recommends a maximum of 4
boilers per tank, with total BTU per tank not to exceed 8,000,000. Specific recommendations are below.
See Figure 1-20 and Figure 1-21 for suggested piping. When using the combo tank, supply make-up
water at the connection shown. An internal float in the tank activates the make-up water valve.
