Title: Proper HX
Post by: George Scofield on December 27, 2014, 08:08:43 PM

Hey guys. Anybody have any suggestions on heat exchangers? I have one I'm watching on Ebay for $169.00. It's a 40 plate and its dimensions are: 5" wide by 12" long and 5" deep. Does this sound right? Also it has 1 1/4 mpt ports. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Is it for heating domestic water or heating your house?

The HX will be for the house- 2,000 square feet with 3 zones

Does the seller have exchangers/pieces/parts that he is not using with his new setup?

The guy I bought the boiler from doesn't have the HX or anything parts wise. Can anyone tell me where I should look for a HX?

What type of heat do you have in the house? If baseboard, I would go up a couple sizes. That ebay price is probably as good of a deal as you will find. If you want a made in USA version, they will probably run about $100 higher.
