The other day, someone suggested a potential solution to an API-661 cooler nozzle loading issue I've been having and I'm trying to figure out if it will work the way that I hope it will. This person suggested installing some kind of flange support on the cooler nozzle itself and attaching that support to some kind of off-equipment structure. His thought was we could direct all of the nozzle load into this other structure and preserve the cooler nozzles without having to change the piping system. We're at our wits end here as this particular cooler nozzle has been giving us trouble for a while.

I want to like this solution, but I want to make sure it makes sense before I pursue it further. Does this seem like a viable solution?
