Ok so lets summarize. So O2 "MAY" diffuse through the pipe and "MAY" cause corrosion according to the post by heaterman. I will concede once again...
woodsmaster At the risk of sounding argumentative here are some more thoughts. yes there is air in the ground but I have dug up many a waterline...
Ok I will concede O2 gets through the pipe. I just have to wonder if it is enough to make a difference. First of all, I am not talking about 3/4" or...
Im not a HVAC guy but if you put your HX in the supply duct after the air handler there wood be no hi temps in the air handler to damage anything.
Ok so maybe there is some truth to some O2 will get through but is it really necessary, with the additives that are available. Some one said it...
With all the water treatments I am reading about is it really necessary. I am having a really hard time wraping my mind around the the fact that a...
Wow what a great product! Is it expensive? After reading all of this thread again, I think the concrete option would not be the one I would...
The weight of the concrete/gypcrete/litecrete is the biggest problem to overcome. 500 sq ft X 1 1/2" = 2.31 or approx 2 1/2 yds of concrete, at...
Nope, no welded steel anything. Its just a concrete box (reinforced with rebar) with 1/2" copper tubing poured in to the concrete. I know the...
I am trying to design my system without unnecessary pumps but I have a fairly long run. Anybody have any suggestions on how to improve this design?...

That being the case I would think big burner is probably on to something. Maybe blockage and or turbulance? I am curious though, on the Seton if it...
Well Again I am no expert but if your pump is too big, it might be moving the water through the boiler to fast to get good heat transfer making it...
I am no expert on boilers, but I am confused about this as I install bigger pumps for a living. The "head" is the resistance the pump is pumping...
I went to their factory, they are not using refractory cement. They are using specially mixed concrete poured around 1/2 copper pipe. They do have...
Thanks for the link. I have a Greenwood 200. I am going to use a pressurized system ( I cant understand why anybody would use an open system). thanks
Well I didnt see the need to do heat loss calculations again, as my HVAC contractor did this when I had my 52000 btu heat pump installed in 05. Am I...
Hi I have recently bought a 200,000 Btu wood boiler and am trying to sort out all the misinformation and information, in order to properly size my...
