Hi we purchased a Used 2 year old heatmaster mf5000 in great condition ....Things we are going to do ...
First we are going to use 1 inch pex
Roughly 70 feet underground maybe 2 feet grade up hill from stove to basement wall and 8 feet straight up and in to floor joist
then 25 feet to hot water heater to a 30 plate water to water heat exchange with 1 inch fittings
then 15 to 20 feet to heat exchange 16x 18 3 1/2 thick one inch fittings so roughly 240 feet loop
My question is I need a pump that runs constant or not
Would a Taco 011 f4 be what we are looking for ?

A Taco 0011 should work fine. Just make sure there is no place for air to get trapped in the pipe before the pump. Those pumps don't like even a little air getting in them.

Feel free to call me and I'd be glad to help make sure you get that heatmaster set up so you'll get many years of service out of it, I sell a lot of them and can teach you a few tricks
