Edit: Perhaps most of you knew this and that's why I didn't get much feedback. The individual that I asked to draft my design does not want his plans posted here so I have removed them.
Some general words of encouragement would be helpful as I am getting real close to selling the boiler and my wood and hiring the oil man.
Hello,
I hired somebody to draft a system design for my Econoburn 150. He is not local and will not be installing it. Most of it is over my head however I do have a question about the storage piping. One of my overall concepts is that I want to be sure that I can heat directly from the boiler without heating the 500gallons. I think it is the Tarm diagrams that show just one inlet and one outlet. When the tank is warm the flow is reversed through the tank. When the tank is not warm it is bypassed completely. The attached layout has two inlets and two outlets. Will this hamper heating the zones when the storage is cold? If yes, can that be mitigated by plumbing the supply from the boiler and the supply for the zones closely at the top of the tank?
Any and all comments welcome
Thanks
Travis
