I have a two family house . I just had new gas steam boilers installed.
Unit 2 ( includes a main living area on 2nd floor and Bedroom on 3rd floor )
Same size Boiler as unit 1 ( Burnham PIN 5 140 BTU)
Takes about an hour for the heat to achieve a 3-degree rise
All basement pipes insulated
3 of 8 risers insulated 3 more could be; 2 hidden in walls
All new vents ( this helped balance the heating)
Any suggestions on how to shorten the heating cycle?
No, a build-up of pressure on Unit 2.
Is there any way to increase pressure in the system to get steam to rise faster?

Ed
