We will soon be hooking up the heat source for our in-slab heat in the new shop. We are using a one zone system with an electric boiler (Argo 24 KW).
My heating guy normally works with oil or propane boilers, and is planning on having a recirculating loop with it's own pump and a mixing valve, like the oil fired system we have in another building. I have been reading that with an electric boiler it's not necessary for this loop and a mixing valve especially with a one zone system. Any thoughts? We already have the parts; will it hurt or waste any energy to have these parts if they aren't necessary?
Thanks for any input.
