On my Thermopex from CB, both lines are red but one has a black stripe.  I would think there would be some type of marking to let you know.

I agree if you used thermopex they both look like the same pipe. But on one side of one of the pipes one has a double black stripe and the other one is just plain red. Distinguish which pipe is your return on your boiler and go inside your home and check your return line to see if its the pipe you want it to be.

The pump needs to be mounted at the upper line and the return at the lower. On my stove CB 6048 the water temp gauge is in the stove's water tank near the upper line. So if your returning cooler water is what the temp gauge is reading your damper will be open more, burning excessive wood.
