Commercial Boiler Function
Industrial boilers range in size and application, but they are typically used to generate heat and power in a facility. This is a critical task for a commercial building or workspace. Moreover, it takes a lot of energy and maintenance to perform it well consistently.
This video by “Chemical Engineering gives a brief overview of boilers:
Essentially, these pressurized systems burn fuel or electricity to heat the water used in providing heating for your building. There are boilers that will use water to heat, and other that utilize steam. Regardless, the are a necessary function in any commercial building.
Further, the process is aided by the heat exchanger which warms the coils and the water which flows through it. From there, the water or steam is distributed throughout the pipes in your facility. Radiators disperse the heat in the final phase. While the process seems mundane, it must be remembered that boilers are volatile and sensitive pieces of equipment. Hot steam, leaks or a potential explosion can cause serious harm or injuries.
