Wondering if anyone has used the Gifford loop and how it's working out?

    old post, new reply

    I know this post is really old, but I installed a Gifford on my system and it has worked great. I've had no hammer, even with other parts of the system being messed up.

    JPF321, a poster who has not been around for a while installed a new boiler a year or so ago.  He used a Gifford loop.  As I recall, he was quite happy with it.  You can find some of his posts.  He has links in his signature line to many photos of his installation.
