A friend of mine has a central boiler with a 30 plate and taco 007 his works out pretty good. I ordered the 30 plate last night. Im hoping to at least get it going until it gets here. I was going to order the alpha I was under the impression the 007 is stronger.

The reason Im swapping the 3 speed monster pump. Is energy usage is through the roof. I have a 30 plate in my shopping cart on altheatsupply. Im just waiting to see what else I need before i go ahead and order it. The pump was stuck on the fitting after I unbolted it and I dropped it because it fell unexpectedly and broke the speed control switch. CRAP!!! Been one of those days.  Coldest day so far no furnance.....

bn39-20 front the chart i looked at it makes the same numbers on the second speed as taco 007. it also worked on setting one just really low gpm. It goes through 16x16 heat exchanger first before the 10 plate.Water is not making it to the heat exchanger I have a bypass on it. Still didnt help so shouldnt be any restriction like the 10 plate might be.

All valves are open. Its pulling from top port on furnance so pump arrow is facing down for water flow direction. Its the 007ifc. The pump is facing where you can read what it says on pump.

I have a earth 305 outdoor furnance. I have a 16x16 exchanger air to air.  A 10 plate exchanger for hot water. Around 100 feet total of 1 inch pex. maybe 5 feet of rise total. The pump I used to have was a broedger 3 speed. It supposedly put out 10gpm on second speed and 7 feet of head same as 007 taco. I installed pump and blower immediately came on temp dropped really fast. I waited a few minutres for air to bleed. Temp barely went up maybe to 3 degrees. Heater boiler over so I unplugged fan it kept on boiling over for a good 10 minutes I turned pump off. Whats wrong?

I ended up getting a master link for chain and sliding pump over and drilling out tank mount to tighten chain. Works like a champ. Not bad for 125 dollars and 50 cents for master link and 20 bucks for paint.

I checked graineger I forgot about mccmaster. I live near Asheville NC.
I thought about direct drive. The adapter and coupler is almost 100 dollars. Its plenty strong the way it is. The chain being too loose messed up the sprockets its about a 2.5 inch to 6 inch if i had to guess.
