 Check the temps Scott, it make a difference unless you have very little water pressure. The job I checked it on it was making about an 8 degree difference when we had it hooked up correctly.

I can see where it could make a difference like that.  My thoughts were always even for the slight difference it could make the water is still way to hot for personal use.  What water temps were you seeing?

[yoderheating]

 It depends on water flow. Most of what we do is water from private wells so water pressure is all over the map.

Yea.  I rarely see private wells here

Really? I would have not guessed that.

State of ky passed a law years ago that everyone would have access to public water by 2012, they didn't get it complete, but i think 90 % of ppl I know have it

So what is the "correct" way?  Since I still can't remember / find where I read that description...

Is it correct to plumb it like my pic, or like I wrote it down?  I'm not going to change mine unless something breaks, but it may help out someone doing a new install.

XJCraver, yes yours is correct.

[XJCraver]

XJCraver, yes yours is correct.

OK, thanks.

Did you figure it out?  If not, does this help??

Yes I did figure it out, and thanks for the pic.  I posted a sketch earlier in this thread of what I came up with, my buddy made a nice ACAD drawing of my sketch and converted it to .pdf, but I haven't been able to attach it to this site yet.
