boilersystem
Boilersystem is a facility or arrangement that heats water to provide space heating, domestic hot water, or process heat. It includes a boiler unit with a heat exchanger and burner or electric element, a fuel or power supply, feedwater and makeup systems, circulation pumps and piping, heat emitters, and controls for temperature, pressure, and safety.
In operation, fuel combustion or electric heating raises the water temperature inside the boiler. The heated
Configurations vary by application. Residential systems are hot-water or steam and use gas-fired, oil-fired, or electric
Efficiency is commonly measured as AFUE or seasonal efficiency. Condensing and well-insulated systems can exceed 90%
Safety devices include a pressure relief valve, low-water cutoff, flame safeguard, and proper venting. Regular maintenance
Installations obey local building codes and pressure-vessel standards (e.g., ASME in the US). In many regions,
