: What is the reason that galvanized pipe is not permitted in Boiler Blowoff and Blowdown systems ?

: (See ASME B31.1 "Power Piping Code" para. 122.1.4 )

: Is the reason because the zinc coating will pose a health hazard as it degrades due to high temperature or is there another reason ?

: Thanks in advance !!

: MJC


I'm not sure about the galvanized restriction, but you will need scd 80 pipe up to the second BB valve.
