Take the MYSTERY out of the MECHANICAL ROOMStart with buying the best! REGARDLESS of Brand Name, today's high efficiency, condensing and modulating low mass boilers have TWO UNIQUE AND OFTEN OVERLOOKED REQUIREMENTS.  THE FIRST IS APPROPRIATE SIZING.  Most people can easy understand that a boiler which is oversized for its required purpose will result in not just an increase of initial purchase price but also will not operate at its peak efficiency.  It is simply just just too large for its job.  OFTEN OVERLOOKED however is that its smallest firing rate. Its the boiler's Turndown Ratio and it must not be oversized when compared to its smallest heating zone.  When its Turndown Ratio substantially exceeds the BTU requirement of your smallest zone the boiler will not, again operate at its peak efficiency.  When a high efficiency, condensing boiler is oversized at the highest or lowest modulating rate it will "short cycle".  THIS GRAPIC ILLUSTRATES WHAT HAPPENS in a short cycling situation.In this graphic, the fluid in the system's "Primary Loop" and in the single zone/pump requiring heat is what the boiler considers its "tank".   When the boiler's "tank" fluid temperature exceeds its high limit temperature setting, it will shut down to allow the fluid to cool, regardless of the fact that the t-stat for single zone/pump requiring heat is not satisfied.  In a short cycling situation the high efficiency, condensing and modulating boiler will start, stop and again start, again and again.  The off and on result in this situation will not only result in low operating efficiency but also place undue wear and tear on the boiler. The correct approach to correcting the short cycling situation is by adding volume (mass) to the amount of fluid in the smaller zones.  The correct method do this is to add an appropriately sized buffer tank.  THE SECOND UNIQUE AND SOMETIMES OVERLOOKED REQUIREMENT is the boiler's requirement for Primary/Secondary configuration.  This requirement is called hydronic or hydraulic separation. The system in the above graphic is plumbed to Primary/Secondary configuration and is accomplishing the boiler's required hydronic separation by a method called "closely spaced tees". This method is by far the least expensive method to accomplish hydronic separation but if not done incorrectly, regardless of the boiler's correct sizing, will result in complete system problems, if not failure.This graphic illustrates a high efficiency, condensing and modulating boiler which is correctly sized to its total  maximum load and its smallest zone/pump's BTU requirement.  The boiler's requirement for hydronic separation (Primary/Secondary Configuration) is being satisfied by the Boiler Buddy buffer tank installed in the hydronic heating system   The biggest cost of any Hot Water Radiant Heat System is the design, and labor to build and install the system.  Due to the special requirements of Radiant Heating Systems local plumbers and heating companies are often not familiar with the specifics of system design/builds.  We have been successfully building hydronic control panels for over 12 years.  Please check our other eBay listings, and eBay feedback to become familiar with our complete range of system design availability.  Our hydronic control panels are designed to interface with any boiler brand and model.  We do complete hydronic heating designs when that is necessary and requested.  We also offer CAMUS Hydronics DynaMax boilers.  Interfacing our hydronic control panels to boilers has resulted in us being very familiar with most brand boilers.  We will be happy to advise you in the selection of any brand high efficiency boiler.  Understanding which boiler your job requires can be a daunting task for those of us not normally in the hydronic heating industry. THIS EBAY LISTING IS FOR THE BOILER BUDDY BB-30 buffer tank however all models and sizes are available. Let us help you TAKE THE MYSTERY OUT OF THE MECHANICAL ROOM.
