in THE MAIN WALL
I have a burnham gas boiler. the boiler is off on high limit pumps are circulating. But I think the black single peace taco thermatic bye pass that is right off the supply is bypassing the boiler. Has anyone run into this problem. There is a bleeder on it and it didnt help.

    By-Pass

    Yes, I think I know what you mean.  We installed a few Burnham wall-hung boilers when they first came out; perfectly sized for many of the small jobs we had.  But that by-pass was a real troublemaker.  We did something, but I don't remember if it was disabling the pump or removing the guts of the by-pass.

    guts

    Try pulling the guts out of the bypass, and it will just mix. did it work then stop working?
