The term "Water Tube Boiler" actually refers to the design of the boiler itself. The typical
water tube boiler is for the higher pressure and higher temperature steam applications than that of the Fire
Tube Boilers are capable.If you need your steam super heated a water tube boiler is definitely what you need. The design of a fire tube boiler to do this would be inefficient because of the stresses that would occur at the higher temperature and pressures.
However, since the temperature and / or the pressure is higher than in a fire tube boiler, you will probably need a water treatment system as well. This is because as the temperature and pressure rises, more of the impurities in the water, such as calcium, iron, and lime, are released and can do much more damage in a shorter time.
Many people find a deposit in their water pipes in their home because of the deposits in their water supply. If you pay close attention,
you will find that these deposits are worse in the hot water lines than in the cold. The reason for
this is the heat. As the heat increases, so do the problems associated with these deposits.When we reach the high pressures and temperatures of these boilers, this becomes a constant and verifiable problem. Especially since a steam system cannot deal with pieces of these deposits coming loose from the walls of the pipes. This is exactly what caused many boiler explosions in the early days of boiler use.
