4.0 out of 5 stars The Chemical Treatment of Boiler Water, May 10, 2009

Joe Pellino "Water Tech" (NC, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Chemical Treatment of Boiler Water (Paperback)

This is the most comprehensive book for treatment of steam boilers. It is highly technical, and covers every aspect, how, why, when, etc. It is a must read for anyone who maintains boilers for a living. The only downfall is that a background in basic chemistry would be helpful before reading this text. I had to look info up on the internet as I read the book.
