Hello everybody,
Do I need teflon pads between the legs of the heat exchanger and concrete / steel. What is the practice? Do some standard covers? Thanks

Yes, horizontal exchangers shall be fixed on one saddle and free to move in the longitudinal direction at the other saddle.

Not sure if TEMA has any guidelines, but all of our exchangers are just resting on the metal supports.
