Site Suggestions / Current manufacturers producing epa cert furnaces!!!!
« on: October 01, 2017, 08:02:45 PM »
Hello moderators.
     I have people ask questions sometimes on some furnaces that are no longer in production. Even though they are on the EPA certified furnace list. I'm sure people are wasting time looking into these furnaces and where the nearest dealers are. only to be frustrated further by finding out they do not manufacture or are out of business.
  Can we get a header in for current manufactures you can actually buy from.  You can word it how ever it makes sense. Thanks. Then lock it so there is no jiber Jaber on it.

Advanced Plumbing / BAD BAD BOILERS.
« on: September 29, 2017, 11:20:40 AM »
Was looking threw the hawken boilers and came across this posting. Was hoping that someone picked up on it before it came to the end of story. But they did not.   
  So when a heat exchanger ️(HX) is hooked up wrong it will make any boiler function poorly and work harder to get the results it is rated for. We all know this to be true.
 So in this post the ️HX is hooked up in parallel flow.   Example. 180 from OWF 150 from house. Heats to 165. ( Acts like it is mixing instead of transferring heat.) 165goes to owf  165goes to house. Thus your zones are starving for BTU's and your boiler is working harder n longer. To get to the shut of temp.
The correct way is the counter flow.as we all know    So the incoming cooler house water warms up to the 180 or close to it. And the return to the OWF is cooler maybe 155deg water so it can absorb more heat energy. Your house will come up to set temps sooner and then let your OWF come up to the shut off temp sooner.   
  In this old  hawken post, the same thing still happens to a lot of customers still today.with any boiler.
Hondaracer was on track with the ️HX.   What do you guys say. ??

@hondaracer2oo4 and @ woodman   It is snowing big time outside and we have a bunch of wind... so the temps are for when the zones are calling for heat... BRRR wicked cold out right now.. so this is what I got for ya.   Water jacket temp reads 172 on the front of the unit.  The supply line on back of furnace measures out to be about 165 and the return line 139.  Inside the basement about 75 feet or so the lines measure 163 and 137. 
The lines across the plate exchanger measure 165 135 on the Furnace side and 137 121 on the house water side. 
Air temp inside the house is 68
Is this what you needed to maybe help?  Did I miss anything?

Looking for your thoughts on these wall hung units. The reviews do not look good for them. I have to tie into one that has the primary loop already existing.
 I seen the Navian run. It came up to temp very fast. It was lp. 18-120,000 BTU. Has a small flat plate for the DHW. And CPVC for exhaust n intake. It's own circulator inside.

I'm sure this has happened to many mechanics and boiler repair people. A broken off cast iron 1 1/4 pipe plug. I will show you an easy way to get it out. I hope. LYAO  if I dont. that's laugh your ass off   I am changing my flow direction from OWB to my oil boiler inside.  I have a lack of flow issue and I am sick of dealing with it over the past 12 years. I would deal with it with my wood stove Inside cellar. Now I have a G-200  with all kinds of hot water that I need to get inside. So I need to get this plug out it was a 1" square now it's broken off. Uggghhh.
