I have an LF777SI Y strainer on the main line coming into the house (2") and am installing an IBC boiler with indirect water heater tank. The strainer has a #20 mesh which I believe is 841 microns.
IBC recommends a Y strainer on the boiler fresh water feed.
Is there a good reason to put another 20 mesh strainer on that line?
Should I instead put a finer filter, like a 50 or 100 micron on the water feed to the boiler?
Do I need a filter on the boiler return (from tank)?
Thank you!
