Re: High water level
There is a switch on the condensate tank not a Square D. The boiler feed pumps are controlled by something on the boiler which is not in the pictures.
Re: New Flue installation / touching pressure tank -- problem?
Probably not an issue but it would be better if it wasn't touching. Not much contact there. They could have easily swung the pipe over 1" and then it wouldn't have been an issue.
Re: Low Temp Geothermal Snow Melt System (no heat pump)
Not a snow melt expert but with water in the 50s it will take a lot of pex loops to get enough heat transfer to do the job. I would wire the pump on and off to and outdoor air temp switch although they do have snow melt sensors, but they would likely not work fast enough. I see no need to run the pump in the summer.
Re: Gas Boiler Question
our standing radiator has 7 ribs with a length of 15 in and depth of around 8in and height of around 36in

Re: Auto Feed Running when boiler is filled
@JH3550 You could PM @Mad Dog_2 or @JohnNY if they can't do it they may know someone that will. You could clean it up yourself if your handy, but it is kind of a dirty thankless job.
@delcrossv you can buy a #2 switch for a 67 without the float.
Re: Haier Mini Split
Low refrigerant charge…a leak.
Compressor cycling on OL or HP or LP
Leaking change over valve
Really any number of things.
Re: Haier Mini Split
Multi split with weird operation is almost always a low refrigerant issue. Check this before doing any other troubleshooting.

Re: Auto Feed Running when boiler is filled
Those MM LWCOs should be stripped down annually.
Probably a bad switch, but those are sold with the float, so $$$.
Re: Auto Feed Running when boiler is filled
Probably not the auto feeder if you tapped the low water cutoff. The low water cutoff needs to be taken apart and cleaned. The low water cutoff turns the water feeder on and off and the float is probably sticking. If you don't have it cleaned it could fail to shut the burner down in a low water condition ……and you do not want that.
You should have the LWCO serviced. In the meantime, keep water in the boiler by feeding it manually if you have a bypass piped around the water feeder. Can't tell by the pictures.
Keep your eye on the water level until you get it looked at.
The VTX feeders are better than the McDonnell Miller as @Jamie Hall mentioned.
Re: Auto Feed Running when boiler is filled
Theoretically the autofeeder can be taken apart and the little solenoid valve which is sticking on you repaired. Theoretically. In practice it's usually easier to simply replace it — nice new VXT complete with useful delays and volume controls and a flow meter…
