this look like it will work?
some info.
infoor hydronic heat in a barn. floor and building well insulated. pellet boiler A-Maize-Ing heat 80,000 to 160,000 BTU, 80 % eff.
single zone with circuit manifold. would like to use one pump but i think i may need a pump for the load loop.
i want some boiler protection, min of 140 return water temp. so that's why the bypass before the tempering valve. but i want to keep the floor tubing protected as well. thinking a mixing/ temper valve set around 100 to 120 deg. the pex says its good for 180 but that seems hot to me.
i know the boiler is kind of large for the building 1,200 sqft. but its what i got. maybe some day ill pipe in some storage.
i have been looking at many plumping systems on the net and this seems the one with the least parts. like i said i could use another pump and if i do ill space a couple "T"s close together to allow for the Primary/secondary circuits between the supply and return manifolds and the tempering valve.
so if you have time please let me know what you think. would like to only sweet this thing together once.
any and all reply's are grateful.
