Plumbing / water to air heat exchanger - where does it go
« on: October 20, 2012, 08:41:56 AM »
Morning all , thanks in advance for helping a newbie out here , Im picking up my owb next week and finalizing my order and design for everything else , I am wanting to use a water to air exchanger for my house heat , I'm struggling with where to put this in my unit? , i am attaching pictures below
I have a Carrier split unit in my basement , 5 ton , heats my basement and 1st floor ,
at the top of my unit i have a plenum coming out that is 11x24 ish to the ductwork , I don't t think that's big enough , on my next picture I opened it up, there is no room between the A coil and my squirell cage , underneath I think I can fit a water to air ex changer in , it measures 22x24 but would have to sit directly underneath the A coil and above the return line that comes in on the left or id have to mount it vertically where the return comes in covering the round hole for the return duct work ,
I need to do this right the first time so all suggestions/comments are welcome . no horselaughing!

Plumbing / plumbing design questions
« on: October 16, 2012, 06:04:56 AM »
Im getting ready to make the plunge and buy a OWB , I plan on locating it centrally in between the house and greenhouse I will be heating , 180 ft from greenhouse and 150 from house , 2 separate runs /lines
at the house side I am planning a 30 plate changer and a water to air hx 18x20 also would like to run a line to the garage , 25 ft , this is to be used for heat not 100 % of time but just when in use to knock the chill off
at the greenhouse side I m planning a 18x 20 hx heater i would also like to run a line to my second building 40 ft away for heat ,another 18x 20 hx
my question is do these runs need to be plumbed in a series in other words hit the house first and then from there hit the garage and return to the same line line or can a " T " be put in to split the 150ft line and feed both equally
same question for my greenhouse 180 ft run at about the 120 ft mark can i put a T in and feed the first building and then continue to the greenhouse or do they need to be plumbed in a series hit one go in and come back out and continue to second building
thanks in advance
