The feeds will gradually slowdown as the water of condensation decreases. When getting a new or rebuilt engine ready for serv-ice or when using soda ash boiler compounds, or whenrunning in bad water districts, impurities will be car-ried over into the condenser and will gradually accu-mulate at base of water valve until the water iscompletely shut off.
