I just want to say that your videos in combination with a couple well worded articles have really taken me from being intimidated and confused by the primary/secondary terminology to properly understanding how these modulating boilers are designed to work. Thank you so much.
as someone who just got into the mechanical world i love watching your videos and they have given me huge inspiration to do things a bit better then the rest.
Quality job that, I’m a uk heating engineer, so interesting to see how engineers do it in other countries, good to see you still solder, like me old school, not press, why did you have to spray up the isolating valve handles, we buy them off the shelf here already colour coded.
P.S. I still think you should be painting the plywood white or light grey, instead of black. It’s light reflection will brighten up the laundry room and the client will enjoy that.
Another amazing build. Got a part name for that brass ball valve with the pressure ports? Nice touch and I'd like to pick up a pair but have not yet found them.
dude i like the mercury Temp probes, but they scare me too much. seen enough of em break off when the homeowners start piling stuff around the boiler or solar thermal tanks
i have a 175 nfc. saw video that bipassed ato feed and used a heat exchanger. is that a good application? does anyone have a plumbing diagram for that application? thanx Gavin Grand Junction colorado.
I enjoy your videos and think your installations are excellent. However, I have a constructive comment regarding your use of the term "reverse return." I've noticed you mention it a few times. In a manifold piping distribution system, a reverse return isn't necessary a : " reverse return or first fed/last return " regardless of the supply and return placement on the manifold. This is because the loops can have different lengths, causing water to take the path of least resistance. This is why factory built manifolds ( uponor) typically have balancing devices on the return side to adjust the flow through each loop. I can assure you my friend you can not call that a reverse return piping system/layout.
if you have cast iron pipe or radiators, then yes you should to protect your boiler. if you got a cast iron boiler, then its prolly okay. but for anything high efficiency you want the magnetite separator to protect the fancy and delicate HE boilers and their Heat Exchangers and surplus of sensors that dont work well when gummed up with sludgey magnetite

Awesome job. Love the details and the light at the end Excellent craftsman skills !! Be very proud of your skills. Blessings

Thing of beauty! A work of art!
Congratulations clean job.. if the owner is very visual they will be very happy.
Bat signal- how gangster! I'm sure they're enjoying the extra living space, especially in a laundry room.
Indeed it was alot of fun
James you raised the bar just a little higher on this one
Wow beautiful work
Super nice layout!!!
Sweet! The bat signal should be tied to the zone controller and illuminates with a call for heat. Run 24 volt LED.
work of art as usual👍

Question? Why you didn’t use the feeder hydrologic inlet in the tank 1/2”

Calefacto makes
Them
Thank you for sharing this information.
Great job on the work. I really enjoy seeing your final product. Do these systems tend to be more underfloor heating or radiator style heating?
@@dillpickle1308 mostly baseboard heat
Is Hydronic heating a big thing in canda?
can you show how did you do the venting?
Can you do a video on an aprilair 600 humidifier install? From start to finish?
Excellent...
What books or course would you recommend to someone that is willing to learn about boilers. I’m an Hvac installer
How are you controlling the boiler efficiency without the outdoor reset installed?

great job man way to go above and beyond. How long would you say you have been installing boilers for?
First job I did was a boiler so about 20 years or so

@@chulampimable you a 100 percent correct ….thanks for the thoughts I appreciate it
Doi really need the Navien clean installed

Wrong calculator for zone valve system.
