Just curious what anyone else is running. I know not many have this boiler without storage. Mine is set to 25% fan speed as a min. But I've got storage.
I helped get a friend's 40 running, and I set his min down to 15%. It seemed to do very well down low like that. Two zones in the house calling. It sat at about 250 to 260 degrees flue temp. Boiler sitting at 183 degrees and fan just turning 15 to 18% fan speed.
He was awful happy this morning to see an empty firebox. I had to roll his min temp down a bit to make sure the lack of storage didn't have him prematurely shutting down.
He's very handy, and did all his own install. He's used to cleaning his chimney once a month from his smoke dragon, so I made him promise to stay on top of that.
He's anxious for cold temps, and happy as can be that he had the whole house at 75 last night. I think the no storage thing sure isn't as convenient.. but for a guy like him that's semi retired and home all the time.. it's MANAGEABLE. I sure like my setup better. But it seems like it's gonna work fine for him.
