Plumbing / Re: Grundfos 26-99? Which one?

« on: February 08, 2017, 02:15:35 PM »

Ok I'm still confused as the ups26-99fc pump says it's for a closed system.  I have a single pump on my stove feeding to a 20 plate and then to my air exchanger and then back to stove. 6 90* elbows and about 5 foot rise to water heater plate and then about 10 foot rise to top or furnace. Then it returns to boiler.   Looks like the bronze is the only open system. And it's way more expensive. So what do I need

Which one do I need for an open system like our boilers?  Seems like there are a few different versions. Thank you.

I'm interested in your exhaust fan setup.  My boiler is inside my woodshed and I'm tired of smelling like smoke everytime I fill.

I think this is my 5th year running this boiler and I haven't used the original T-stat since the first year.  I have the Ranco and set it at 175 with a swing of 5*.

I run mine at 175*.  They say to bring it up to temp slowly but in the past I have brought it up to temp in a couple of hours.

By counting the plates it looks like a 15.  So by going to a 30 might help out?

This is just in the winter time as I dont use it in the Summer.  My hot line from my boiler goes dirctly to the brazed plate then goes to my heat exchanger in the furnace plenum and then back to the boiler.  The brazed plate heat the water and then it goes into my waterheater which I also turn off my gas to.  Everybody loves the endless amount of hot water and it really shows in the wood usage.  Does it sound like that the way it should be set up?

General Outdoor Furnace Discussion / Heating Domestic Water Doubles Wood Usage?

« on: July 31, 2014, 11:54:03 AM »

A few years ago after I got my boiler all figured out I then hooked up a brazed plate to heat my house water.  Before doing this I could go for most of the winter on just loading once a day.  After heating our water my wood usage has doubled.  Does this sound about right?  We have a rather large family of 7.  I'm thinking I'm going to do away with it cause I'm not sure doubling the wood supply is gonna work.
