 In the event that the system is no longer pressurized, the [[components:valves:blowoff:division_two_blowoff]] needs to be opened to allow air to escape the system and to avoid stresses on the system. In the event that the system is no longer pressurized, the [[components:valves:blowoff:division_two_blowoff]] needs to be opened to allow air to escape the system and to avoid stresses on the system.

 If the booster pumps are off for an extended period of time (for maintenance, power outage, etc...) and the [[components:gauges:mains_pressure_gauge]] reads 0 or close to 0, it is critical that the [[components:valves:blowoff:division_two_blowoff]] be opened before the booster pumps are restarted. If the booster pumps are off for an extended period of time (for maintenance, power outage, etc...) and the [[components:gauges:mains_pressure_gauge]] reads 0 or close to 0, it is critical that the [[components:valves:blowoff:division_two_blowoff]] be opened before the booster pumps are restarted.
