Your Buderus WB should be able to be equiped with An Aquastat to control your water temp. with in reason. It may either vary draft, or cycle a combustion fan.(didn't check). The sketch is presuming that you have multiple zone pumps, but if valves, you will have a single circulator pump between the oil boiler and Distribution Manifold. The aquastat controling the circulator on the WB can also be tweeked, depending upon the type of radiation you have. There are also some other issues with this system that need to be addressed if you have low temp radiant heat, like I have, but I won't get into that. You may also have to put in a bigger expansion tank ??? A safty note:: make sure your P&T valves are in working order, and also the pressure and backflow preventer is working. Loren the Acg.

I use four zone valves so I would need another circulating pump if I was to plumb by your sketch. I am going to add two zones of in floor heat And I am not sure if I would use zone valves or add two additional circulating pumps. I have a drawing of how I want to plumb and wire the two boilers and only use one pump. Would you be willing to look at that and give suggestions. I need to put together a better explanation of what I am doing. [Reply]  [No Email]
