Just thinking about my monstrousity and taking a look at it today, does anyone have any experience with these LWCO? I was talking to my plumber today and he is going to look at it next week but there does not seem to be a place to blow down sediments or crud but the bulb is hot, the boiler is running smoothly but your opinions would be appreciated. For peace of mind It will be looked at and fixed if necessary.

The #63 does not have a built in blow down but should be on the bottom of the pipe it sits on. Not a great way of cleaning but is all that is offered. I am not crazy about them as a primary LWCO as they are usually used as a secondary where required.
