: We heat with low pressure steam the church and school.
: Is is better to empty all the water out during the summer when we don't need the boiler operating or should we leave it in?

Typically on small boilers common practice is to drain all the water and open up. Flush out mud legs/ low water columns and do any necessary repairs then close prior to your heating needs with new gaskets and check/adjust combustion for greatest efficiency.
