job photos #4 ( s milne)

ScottMP

I had a lot of job photos lately. This was oil to gas replacement done by Keith. Oil boiler was located in the middle of the room and was a tankless coil for domestic hot water production. This was a little ranch house with one floor. As you can see, we need consistency with our wall color.

Man, you have been installing a lot of boilers lately. The economy has been good to you in your region.

How 'bout a picture of one of your Knight installs you were telling me about?

Kudo's to your crew.

Ya we've been busy.

The Knights ar'nt ready for photos ..... yet.

I've got two jobs that have been done for awhile but forgot to take pictures so you'll see those also.

But we're doing alot of replacements and switch overs.

Issues?

In some of these really old homes, maybe some have old knob-and-tube wiring, do you ever have grounding issues that wreak havoc on proving ground at the rectification probe?

I am starting a commercial job next week in a really old building and I am spending about $13.00 on a grounding rod and a 1/2 hour of my time to make sure I have good earth ground.

Has'nt

been an issuie as of yet. I know trouble shooting older systems we've found that to be problem.
I've been thinking about installing surge protectors for our boilers ?

I really like the stainless concentric. Sharp! Black is a tough color for background with a pump panel. It steals too much light. I must say my whole summer and fall has been retrofit work - high efficiency boilers and solar thermal. It is high labor work - but profitable. I would rather do boilers every day of the week instead of knocking tin. I turned down 2 attic a/c systems over the past few weeks. Screw that kind of work! Rolling around in fiberglass all day. Yuck. Scott it is almost GB 162 time. It looks nice.

GB-162

Have you heard of a release date on the 162? Also what are the differences between the 142 & 162 ? Nice work Scott.

Love that pro press. I use it on all my geothermal and radiant jobs. No leaks so solder drips, no solder in my pumps. NICE

Paul Pollets

I like the HTP indirects. Super-Stor in stainless steel, life time warranty and cupro-nickol heat exchanger. Its a nice compeditive product.

I would think.........

.......the Buderus tanks will require lower water temperatures to recover hot water due to its increased surface area over something like the SuperStor. Putting a high temperature requred heat exchanger on a condensing boiler is probably not be the most efficient way to run the boiler for DHW production. The cost increase (if any) of the Buderus tank would be made up with enhanced boiler operation.

All that, plus the fact it would look to have more of a system approach.

Or not?

ScottMP

Most of the tanks

rating are at 180/190 and most recovery designs are at higher temps ??

A DHW recovory at lower temperatures would require a large tank to reduce the down time would'nt it ? Most customers want a quick recovery .. I would think ...

I like stainless steel over a glazing.
