Just add the second sensor to teh tankless HWS outlet and plug it in to the control for that sensor.

I have been installing them for a few years now,I have several customers saving up to 20% with it,but most save 10 to 12%

I have one

I don't know if it saved anything or not, but it did expand the differential of my aquastat, and I do like that.

When installing these on a boiler w/ tankless coil it says to attach a sensor to the hot discharge pipe off the coil. Is this the same sensor that you use off the boiler supply piping? They must sell extra sensors separately?

How does the manager work, Does it post purge the boiler after a call for heat or does it fire the boiler depending on the delta T of supply and return piping?

I think

if you want to use a tankless coil, you have to get a different model, and use another sensor for DHW.

Check your oil usage with that tankless coil. I have one, and I quit using it. It used about 2 gal. of oil a day in the summer.

A guy explained how the heat managers work a few months ago in this forum. If you search you may be able to find it. I didn't understand it.


It seems to me that it lowers the temperature at which your burner comes on, and you keep the high limit up at at least 180°. How it determines when to turn the burner on, I don't know, but it makes the effective differential in the aquastat larger... your burner runs longer and not as often.
