I need to know information on the process of an oil system goin to a
boiler. from teh pumps to valves right to teh boiler. thanks

The system works differently depending upon what type of equipment is on the
boiler. How many thermostats, pumps, zone valves, hot water coil, etc

A steam boiler may use a thermostat to control a buildings temperature. The
thermostat may fire the burner, which will heat until it makes low steam
pressure. There are often two operating pressure controls that limit how
much steam pressure is made. There is a high limit safety that prevents too
much steam pressure in the system.There is also a low water cutoff and water
feeder control that makes sure the boiler has sufficient water before it
allows the burner to fire. Sometimes there are motorized valves directing
steam to several locations

ur a big help thanks... u wouldnt happen to kn ow the steps...like from
teh oil tank right to the pumps to the valves and then to the
boiler..lol

This would vary with the size of the burner and the piping from the oil tank
to the burners pump(s). Essentially, when whatever control tells the burner
to fire, it starts an oil feed pump,which pumps oil from the tank to the
burner, which blows atomized oil into the firebox, gets ignited, confirms
ignition and boils the water
