Hello all,

well, i'm actually trying to calculate the necessary size for a PRV to stay within code requirements and the program I have is asking for an environment factor which I'm assuming is what you are talking about in this thread. Please correct me if I'm wrong. The current PRV on the exchanger has...
so does this mean that for my case with a completely uninsulated (bare steel) heat exchanger that is in doors, I should use a factor more like one? There are no immediate fire hazards within 20-25 feet of the exchanger, but still... Please let me know what you think!
