General Outdoor Furnace Discussion / Re: have a new garn on order

« on: July 19, 2012, 04:34:01 PM »

thanks for the reply RSI, with the side arm or plate do you use a small pump to circulate the domestic hot through the exchanger?You mentioned going to two zones, do you think I could split the incoming lines as they enter the house 1in down to two 3/4in? The reason is 3/4in pex and fittings are less than half as much and are available anywhere around here.My last dumb question would you control the cast iron heaters with a mechanical valve or a thermostat controlled valve?Thanks

Garn seems to be a bad name here , maybe because it's indoor vs outdoor. Can anyone suggest a  more appropriate forum. Thanks

I have the garn barn partially finished,the underground pipes are in place,60ft to the shop , 100 ft to the house.My dealer looked at what I needed to do inside the house and shop and he suggested I hire a specialist to design the system, but I already have 22k into this project and the budget is a little  strained. I was really hoping that I could get some help here.The house is the main issue it has infloor heat in the basement slab currently heated with a hot waterheater supplemented with a coil in the wood forced air furnace ,the  house also has an older wing which we added onto, it's not insulated as  well.I need to install water to air heat exchanger for the forced air, side arm for dhw,2 iron heaters in the old wing and connect to the the infloorheat, Can anyone suggest a path for the water 1st 2nd etc.Sorry for the long winded post, thanks
