Units shall be UL listed.
8-3.1.4
Steam water heater. Storage tanks shall be ASME stamped for the working
pressure. The tank shall be cement-lined or glass-lined steel type in accordance with AWWA
D100. The heat loss shall conform to the requirements of ASHRAE 90.1. The heat exchanger
shall be double wall type that separates the potable water from the heat transfer medium with a
space vented to the atmosphere in accordance with the code and shall have a working pressure
of 1034 kPa with steam at a temperature of 208 degrees C. Tubing shall be light-drawn copper
tubing conforming to ASTM B 75.
8-3.2
Pumps. Recirculating pumps shall be inline type and shall be provided whenever hot
water piping extends further than 15 m from a tank.
