Make-up water to steam boilers should be treated with oxygen scavengers to avoid serious corrosion problems. Corrosion is a major problem in steam systems with high consumption of make-up water. Fresh water contains dissolved oxygen. Oxygen together with high temperature is highly corrosive for the carbon steel piping used in steam systems.

Chemical treatments and continuous surface blowdowns are commonly used to eliminate solids at the same rate as they are added from the feed water. Recommended maximum TDS levels depends on the type of boiler - normally ranging 2000 - 10000 ppm. TDS can be monitored by measuring the electrical conductivity of the boiler water.
