Long Heating Cycle

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? Signed Ed
