I am trying to figure out two things.
First, I need to put in an overheat zone for my tarm 60, and it needs to be about 20K BTU (10% of boiler capacity). How do I figure out how much baseboard that corresponds to? I have 2- 6 foot cast-iron baseboards, and also a 14 foot cast-iron baseboard that I would like to use for this purpose if possible (currently surplus).
Second, is it possible to have the gravity/overheat zone plumbed so that it is also serves as a regular zone or is it a dedicated overload-only zone? If you can do it, what would that plumbing schematic look like?
