    radiant heat: keep it hot or ??

    I think that was what he meant, whatever the case this is all great information. I have mine set at 55 and its perfect, I hate being cold. This was the best idea ever to install this system.

    Tankless water heater humming????

    turns out after trying several things, simply lifting up on the fill vale lever and introducing city water pressure to a 12 pound system for only one second pushed the air through the heat exchanger and solved the problem!!:bounce: maybe since the heat exchanger is above (like 12") the outlet...

    Tankless water heater humming????

    I installed a Bosch aquastar 240fx for my radiant heat flooring. It's running as designed, temp is fine, but it hums quite loud right underneath where the flue exits the boiler. Its not constant, it will hum then operate quietly then hum again. It's related to water flow, my system has a 3...

    Thermostat set at 45, shop 60 degrees ??

    My thermostat is a $20 job with no mercury switch. My thermometer is right next to the thermostat on the wall. I was just out there, it was set at 43 all day with actual air temp beside it at 56. When I went out there the unit was running, so I slowly dialed it back until it tripped off at 40...
