It is a T80 and it does have a condensate drain

yes it would have been a 12 year warranty but im not the original owner. I bought really cheap about 1 year before I built the shop. It worked great for 4 years then the coil sprung a few pinholes and the material wrap on the burner can started deteriorating and coming off. So now looking for...

So my Munchkin boiler has leaks in the coil and needs a new burner can so it is useless so im looking for something to replace it.It's a 60 x 30 pole barn and the Munchkin 180 was working great but now I need something different Open to ideas. What about a tankless water heater? thx

OK got the little Munchkin fired up on tues eve before the cold wave hit and the little sucker actually fired right up after bleeding the gas line. I hooked up the make-up water line and bled the system thru that and much to my surprise it went very smoothly! Seems to be running great but the...

will that turn on both pumps or just the one controlled by the taco?

is there a way to wire the pumps so I can override the controls and just wire in a switch so I can just turn the pumps on for circulation?

Whats the error finn ? and do you know what setpoints to try on the Munchkin to start?

OK that makes sense. I'll get r done thanks

awesome that sounds good ! almost ready to fire this system up. So wiring this way both pumps will come on at the same time when there is a call for heat,correct.

OK so I plumbed everything with the closely spaced tees and two pumps according to the Munchkin manual . sorry I don't know how to post pics yet. I origionally got a taco single zone 501 controller. how can I hook up and run two pumps with this setup?

OK, whatever it is called I was considering a system that is not open to make-up water but and not connected to the potable water system. I have seen those reservoirs that add anti-freeze to the system and that's cool but, the thought was do I need anti-freeze in the system in Oklahoma. It does...

Also, I was going to go with a closed system with some anti frz in it so I didn't get a pressure reducing valve or a backflow preventer as used in a open system. Still tossing this around. anyone got any input on this? Thanks

OK I got my propane in and piped now is time to start installing this system to boiler. The manual shows, for a system with tees, a differential bypass valve between the manifolds? I don't really see this on any systems i'm looking at online. HELP

The whole shop will be open and same temperature single zone. The boiler was cheap so if too much trouble I can do something else, but for now need to get it up and running. So if I go with pri/sec do I then need two pumps and exactly where to locate them? this boiler is the later revision with...

Hi all, I just found this board yesterday and it sure has a lot of info. I just built a 30' x 60' pole barn style building east of Tulsa and in the process of setting up the shop. I use it for toys and a workshop. I do auto repair and restoration and current project is a 54 F-100 custom build...
