The low-loss header results in the minimum boiler return temperature.

If you're using primary/secondary with a conventional boiler to keep the boiler temperature <I>up</I>--especially in a series of zones--use traditional primary/secondary piping.

    low loss headers

    when using a primary secondary system, is better to use a low loss header?
    why?, and what brand?

    thanks

    There are a few benefits, such as air elimination, expansion tank connection, sediment removal, supply temperature sensing. You might search for "low loss header" or "hydraulic separator", and there have been many threads discussing this issue in depth.
