IV. WATER PIPING AND TRIM (continued)
K. After the boiler and system have been cleaned and
ushed, and before relling the entire system add
appropriate water treatment chemicals, if necessary, to
bring the pH between 7 and 11.
L. If it is required to perform a long term pressure
test of the hydronic system, the boiler should rst be
isolated to avoid a pressure loss due to the escape of air
trapped in the boiler.
To perform a long term pressure test including the
boiler, ALL trapped air must rst be removed from the
boiler.
A loss of pressure during such a test, with no visible
water leakage, is an indication that the boiler contained
trapped air.
