Re: Taco Viridian vr15-1
Everything was brand new the boilers, (3 Buderus G315/8) piping, one very large spirovent and indirects. We had to build a whole new system while the other one was running because shutting down the DHW system for more than a couple of hours was not a option.Then I doubt you have an issue with magnetite seizing the motor, certainly not multiple circs in a short time period. Your pics confirm that. Sounds like a microprocessor or programming glitch.

Re: She's A Brick House and Cold
I forgot to add this the other day but please keep in mind that the more you seal up the home the less the radiators will shed heat as there will be less air movement in the home and it will
be colder.

Re: Mutiple heat source types on monoflo loop
You can't have a monoflow system, without monoflow tees.

Re: Can bucket and F&T traps be mounted too low? Pics attached.
I am wondering if there had been a wet return that went bad or was in the way. Some genius may have said "Why use the wet return when there is a dry return right there?". If the dry return is lower then the steam main then I agree with just a simple water leg, Please use crosses at the bottom for clean out later.Charlie, thanks for the insight. The dry returns are lower than than the steam mains. I will put unions on the loops along with a tee/ drain port so they can be removed and flushed annually.
Re: Where's my steam traps??...and other questions
If your replacing boiler, and if you can get to all the radiators. Switch it over to hot water run pex tubing to each radiator.
This way each radiator can be zone, have multi temp threw out the house. System would be quiet, efficient and comfortable.

Re: issue with Bryant three wire pilot
yes it is wired right, the plug will only fit one way. The nc contacts energize the spark box. After pilot is established the pilot heats up to the point where the nc contacts open de energizing the spark box, and the no contacts on the pilot close energizing the main gas valve. All that works when the pilot is manually lit with a match. It would not work when manually lit, if it was wired wrong.
