A Bad Feedwater Valve Can Make a Good Boiler Look Terrible - A look at the Mod V - Boiling Point

A feedwater valve may not be the flashiest part of the boiler room, but it can make or break boiler performance. In this episode of The Boiling Point, Ritchie Ware breaks down what a feedwater valve does, why stable feedwater control matters, and how poor valve performance can lead to unstable water levels, pressure swings, nuisance shutdowns, carryover, operator frustration, and wasted energy. Richie also explains why WARE built the WARE Mod V, a modulating feedwater valve package designed to give boilers smoother, more accurate feedwater control. Instead of slamming open and shut, the Mod V adjusts to what the boiler actually needs, helping plants run more consistently, efficiently, and reliably. If your boiler water level is bouncing, your operators are constantly babysitting the system, or your standby boiler is flooding because of a leaking feedwater valve, this video is for you.
