Re: Multiple problems, here I go again.
IMO, the best thing you can do is quote them a price to do the job right and replace the boiler with one that is properly sized. I would think, even if you could downsize the radiators,by the time you find enought radiators , the right size, new or used, take the old ones out, install the replacements with new valves and spuds, still fix the near boiler piping, which has to be done, that your quote will likely be as much, may be more than just the boiler replacement.

Thanks but I've seen this and it doesn't answer my question.

Re: Circulator sizing on Superstor 50 Gallon?
Could I please ask the question nobody has... What is your DHW need? From there, then we should size properly. Too many carts before the horse.. Based on the thread I'm going to assume the heating system is zoned circ's but you haven't really told us that either. @Hatterasguy is spot on with the 1" piping and more then likely correct on the 007 but the initial question I asked should be answered. A 005 is priced more then an Alpha, so scrap that idea.

Re: Main air vents - how many, where, what
@emk2badknees , I apologize that your tread got off track but I did want to get back to you and let you know that, yes, by the way the Industry and virtually all of the Pro' s size a boiler, yours is about 37% to 38% over-sized. You might want to have a professional come in and see how much it can be down-fired to get you closer to your connected EDR or, better yet, you may want to investigate having a two stage gas valve installed.

Re: Can't get Carrier furnace to work---4 months later!
What's the first photo? The return? What room is it drawing from? I see doors. If supplies are in other rooms that are behind those doors, doors need to remain open if there's no way for air to get from those rooms to the room with the return on it. Also, in your last pic, looks like the return? pipe has separated from the elbow
Re: B/W EF100T199E3N nat gas commercial gas water heater condensing in first heat exchanger.
Over 500 gallons per hour at a 40*F recovery rate, are you getting that? I'd suggest contacting BF white 800-334-3393, and ask them about the temp you are going to create too much condensate. Measure water temp entering, and leaving, and see if they say your wh is undersized.
Is there a drain on the leaving side of the flue pipe, like a tap to a drain, for condensate to travel through a trap before it enters the water heater?
