Integration panel has one and the boiler has one for boiler heat and I have one for the domestic hot water side. Just following boiler manf and integration panel instructions. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not yet have one assembled just not installed. Goes to my septic... not a lot of volume of water ...Not too worried about it at this time. I have a few loose ends to wrap up like securing some of the wiring and wrapping the pipe with insulation so will probably get to that when I do those items...

Got my system installed and up and running on December 30th. Decided to install it all myself. Learned a lot and am very happy with the final product. Seems to be running great. Had a professional come in to do a final check on it all and do the combustion analysis. All great. Did have a error...

There about 3-1/2” of foam insulation board with fiberglass backing behind the manifold. It is all sealed up with expanda foam and silicon. I’ve spent a ton of time sealing up any gaps I can find. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What type of glue do you use? I had a box of pipe Insulation given to me a number of years ago from a professional insulator. The box even shows the numerous ways to make all the 90’s, T’s etc.. and even has a miter gauge on the box. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So I finally got my hydronic heating system installed. Ended up going with a Westinghouse combination boiler 144,000 btu’s and a hydro smart integration panel and RHT 10 loop manifold. I got the fluid in and air purged and up and running. Seems to be doing a great job and once the pad was heated...

Steve, do you have any details on the electric raised stairs - thinking this may be my savior when I build my loft in the future. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have my older Yamaha receiver, DVD player and a Bluetooth receiver hooked up to the stereo to receive my phone’s Spotify. I have four bookshelf speakers mounted on brackets on the wall - 2 JBL’s and 2 infinity’s. Also have two little surround speakers and my center channel and sub out there...

I would really be curious on cost to operate. I am still waiting to pull the trigger on a boiler and have been debating between electric or propane. I will have to set a propane tank if I go that route. My shop is alittle bigger than yours 36x56 with 14’ walls and scissor trusses, but is not off...

I started using them, but decided not to use them. They seemed to take me longer to put them in place. Decided just using the kreg jig was easier and quicker for me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No, I actually used my Kreg jig and put two screws on each end into the 6x6 and several on the back edge into the girt. Took alittle time but I didn’t have to worry about shooting nails through my metal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Same with me i bookshelved 2x6’s between the Posts, added 24” R19 insulation horizontally and then put pre-painted OSB exterior siding on the walls. I am really happy how it turned out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey Mike, I wanted to see how your radiant heat system is performing. I am ready to install some heating source for my hydronic heating system but have not decided yet what to get. Debating between electric boiler, propane boiler (have to set a tank), air to water heat pump... what does it cost...

OK, so it has been almost a year and I have not pulled the trigger on any heating option for the barn... Just been busy finishing out the inside. I almost have all the insulation complete and just finished insulating the large doors. I am hoping to really just ask the same original question I...
