It is time to do the plumbing on the storage loop and I've come to the Boiler Room brain trust for confirmation of a plan. The plan isn't mine but was given to me by a kind contributor to this forum .
I think this plan will work. I know there are other ways to do it.
What I'd like to discover is how others have done their storage loops before I plumb the loop.
I have the Danfoss 4-way valve and the heat exchanger. The tank has held water now for 14 months. The Pex-Al pex lines are run to the tank from the Primary loop. I am planning to use 2 Grundfos 15-58 circulators.
I was planning to locate the two pumps in the garage near the primary loop. I was also planning to locate the HX in the garage. That location would facilitate continuance in the event of a power failure. The generator can run all the pumps.
The primary loop is nearly 100 feet from the storage tank. Heat will be lost to the house from the lines to the storage tank. The lines run under the floors of two bathrooms.
I'd appreciate your input. The help in the first two phases of this project has been terrific.
