The gage glass on a coil-type auxiliary boiler is connected to the_______________.

AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) accumulator. The gage glass on a coil-type auxiliary boiler is connected to the accumulator, which is a small tank that helps maintain a constant water level in the boiler. The accumulator is connected to the boiler's water circulation system, allowing it to monitor and regulate the water level. The other answer choices are incorrect because: B) the surge chamber is not connected to the gage glass, C) the heating coil inlet and outlet are not related to the gage glass connection, and D) the water softener is a separate component not directly connected to the gage glass.
