Hi,
I know that typically there is a 1.33 factor figured in for piping. What would be a good factor in the case where the new boiler is serving a third floor apartment? Compared to an apartment on the first floor, there are 7, 1 or 1-1/4 ~20' each, pipes (~ 140 more feet) running through the walls of other apartments to supply the 8 third floor radiators.
One pipe steam, EDR = 261, radiator load 62,500 BtuH
Thanks
