Feedwater Tanks

The Heart of a Healthy Steam Loop

The longevity of your boiler is directly tied to the quality of the water you feed it. Cold, oxygen-rich water is the primary cause of thermal shock and rapid pitting corrosion in boiler tubes. Canadian Steam Ltd has created a custom-designed feedwater tank and system to act as the first line of defense for your capital assets.

• Atmospheric Feed Systems: We always recommend a robust stainless steel tank equipped with steam sparge tubes to preheat feedwater to 190°F+. This preheating drives off the majority of dissolved oxygen and reduces the chemical scavenging required. An atmospheric system doesn’t require a safety relief valve or more expensive pressure vessel registrations.

Why Upgrade? A modern feedwater system stabilizes your boiler’s water level, reduces chemical costs, and recovers waste heat from condensate. Let Canadian Steam assess your current system and propose a retrofit that pays for itself through extended boiler life and operational savings.
