Direct Fire to KO Drum
Direct Fire to KO Drum
(OP)
Can someone point me in the right direction to see if direct fire on a KO Drum is acceptable in the code, is there any specific BTU loads that are ok?
A customer wants to put several 500,000BTU burners on the bottom of the tank to warm it up, which sounds like a dangerous and stupid decision, but this is what they think they want. Is this ok to do per code?
