Maintenance of the winter heating system
Thread Content
Seeking help: The steam traps in the winter heating system often get frozen and clogged. Experienced technicians, please provide some guidance. What kinds of heat tracing systems are there, with dedicated condensate collection tanks and specialized condensate pumps? Or sent out directly through the condensate main pipe?
The back pressure of the condensate water must of course be chosen properly. The length of the heat tracing wire is also a very important issue. Then it needs to be purged thoroughly before being put into use. Finally, it’s important to rely on regular inspections to identify and address problems promptly, rather than waiting until they cause freezing issues.
Hello, what does backpressure of condensate water mean? Are there specific regulations regarding the length of the heat trace?
