Cooling Tower Water Branch Piping Tie IN
(OP)
I have a cooling tower water circuit and need to tie in some branch lines. Is there a recommended tie in i.e., off top of main or bottom. Which is the recommended practice and is there a reference source I can use to confirm location?

If the equipment a new branch is going to feed is in a structure higher than the header then take the branch off the top.
If the equipment a branch is going to feed is lower than the header then take the branch off the bottom of the header.
Just keep it simple.

Make your welders happy - design connections off the top side (half) of piping!
