Re: Riello f3 2 line setup
Dear balou
Please read my post above that identifies two types of service technicians. Sadly, you have the parts replacement type who, btw, has not reimbursed you for the prior parts replacement errors
Im curious as to your total out of pocket expenses to date that has left you with the same issue

Re: Am I being simpleminded for wanting a Weil-McLain just like my old one?
tightening the envelope give much higher return on investment then any high efficiency boiler!
tighten the envelope and get a much smaller boiler.
Re: WTGO Weil McLain 2 Zone Valves No Heat, with continous running water in the boiler
Probably nothing wrong with the chamber. They are soft and they can discolor.
You just need a qualified oil tech. Once you replace the nozzle you need a combustion test and if the boiler was sooted it needs cleaning and adjusting
Re: Extrol 30's
They should be piped , down and wet …. You could also try pumping them back up …
Extrol 30's
A bad run is one thing but tired of these tanks not holding the charge. Think the bad tank would have purged themselves out of the system by now.
Clients are asking.. "Hey, didn't we just replace that?"
Re: post install skim
Skimming usually or often or always requires multiple "sessions" because it takes time for the oils to make their way into the boiler. Black gunk floating in the gauge glass is a clear sign that more skimming needs to be done.
Look in your boiler's manual which they should have left with you to see what Utica recommends.
Re: WTGO Weil McLain 2 Zone Valves No Heat, with continous running water in the boiler
Continuous running water into the boiler? I hope that's meant to be continuous running water through the boiler… because if not, I'm going to ask where the water is going? I'm thinking major leak…
Re: Boiler install question
The best reason is that us old fart technicians don't need to bend over as much!
I could care less about flooding…. That event would give us all more work! 🤣🤣🤣
Re: Correct Venting for faster Radiator heat up??
55 feet. If that is 2-inch pipe, the main vent should be a Gorton #2. With this vent, the steam will fill the main first, then rise to all the radiators at the same time.
