I bought a cottage with 3 LG splits. The temp settings wouldn't go below 60 degrees. But eventually a found a "low ambient" toggle that keeps the temp at 50 degrees.

Ummmmm.....

I bought it from Aliexpress...

A little late posting this, I got it up and running around the first of the year. 1350sq/ft, 5 loops approx 275’ ea. Thanks for the help from this forum. So far, very happy!

I’m very new to this, and originally hooked my system to an extra old forced air thermostat that I had laying around. But the boiler turned on and off with every opening of the doors so I wanted to control it exclusively by slab temperature. I also wanted Wi-Fi control and to be able to monitor...

Having an issue using an abrasive saw .a couple years ago I was widening some wheel dollies so I was cutting some heavy stock. The abrasive saw seem to cut ok for about a quarter of the way through the 1/2” thick barstock, then seemed to slow considerably. I purchased a new abrasive wheel (14”...

Got it. Didn’t know how long it takes for all the air to dissipate.

Thanks for all the reply’s. How do I allot for make up waster? I’ve seen pics with a clear tube on top of the Spirovent with liquid in it. Is this to monitor that the system is full? I also seem to remember someone used a automotive coolant recovery tank plumbed in somewhere. Not able or...

Thanks. Was just going to ask if I still needed it.

Thanks, I did not think of that. Would it be more useful in the primary loop? Or will the boiler let me know the temperature output anyway? And I will move the Spiralvent back up.

Thanks, I will eliminate that jog, and get some long sweep elbows. The air eliminator’s came with the manifold, but I do that Spirovent. Is it important that it be the above the water level of the boiler, Or can I move it down? I agree, and wanted to put the pump on the hot side, but in...

I miss Yeldogt…

I’m about to start cutting & soldering, but I’m not completely comfortable, so I’m reaching out for help. Everything in its right place? Anything missing? There is a strainer incorporated in the boiler, also a low water cut out. There is a spot on top pressure for the pressure relief valve...

I have a 5 gallon bucket of Cryotec 100, my boiler manual says to not go over 35%, so 30% sounds good. My boiler manual says it has a built in pressure sensing LWCO set at 6psi.

5 loops, my manual recommends a taco 0015-MSF3-IFC or a Grundfos UPS15-58 for what looks like the primary loop. I do have a taco 007, and also a 0010 (more auction booty), wondering if either of those is suitable for the secondary pump.
