Need some help. We are heating a vacation house with a Triangle Tube Solo 60 Modulating boiler. We finished the install over the summer but as late fall fast approaches, I am growing increasingly concerned about the house freezing up with this boiler. We make it up there every couple of weeks so in between visits, we drop the thermostats down to 40 degrees. What happens is that the boiler will go into a hard lock out (manual reset required) when the incoming and out going boiler temp stays the same for some amount of time (unknown at this point). My thought is to put a thermostat on the smallest loop of radiant and "exercise" the boiler twice a day for ten minutes. This kind exchanges the savings for piece of mind.
Has anyone run across this issue before and is there a way to avoid a hard lockout If not, what do you think of "exercising" the equipment?
