Good point... I will keep working the figures. I might have to do this on my house first.

    I don't know if I will ever use this method but I am considering it. The idea is to use a variable speed injection pump straight our of a instananious water heater. I know that you can't get the proper amount of flow if you go straight through the water heater but I can't see any reason you couldn't jack up the temp. and use this method. Is there anything that I am over looking?

    lets \"c\"

    if the VIP were to go below the flow for the HTR, it would turn off the gas, Then the temp would go down and the cooling would start up the VIP to greater flow. the gas would then come on. Ok unless the radiant mass was very slow to recover from the lower temp. That'd have to be a guess at first. If it is for your own place I'd go for it. Sounds like a fun idea. It'd keep the heater from condensating if set right.
