1Hydronic heating systems should never use a combination of flexible and rigid piping materials.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
2In the absence of any building or mechanical codes that require otherwise, type M is the standard for copper tubing used in hydronic heating systems.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
3Plumbing codes no longer allow solders containing lead to be used for domestic water service.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
4The molecular structure of nonmetallic tubes such as those made of PEX or rubber compounds is such that oxygen molecules can diffuse through their tube walls and be absorbed by the fluid within.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
5The pressure difference between the inside and outside of the tube has a very strong effect on oxygen diffusion.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
6A well-planned piping assembly will use the largest number of fittings possible.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
7Due to thermal expansion, the greater the length of the pipe, and the greater the temperature change, the greater the change in length.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
8A feed water valve is used to increase the pressure of water from a domestic water distribution pipe before it enters a hydronic system.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
9Piping schematics are the road maps of hydronic system design. Unfortunately, there is no universal standard for piping symbols to which all those in the hydronics industry subscribes.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
10In situations where both piping and electrical wiring are in close proximity, try to keep the piping above the electrical wiring.

17Feed water valves operate by balancing the force generated by water pressure against an internal flexible __________, with the counterforce generated by a partially compressed spring.
- Afeeder
- Bcavitator
- Cdiaphragm
- Dpressurizer
