mono flow
Mono flow systems don't like to push HOT water down unless you have a good sized pump on the supply side. IF these rads are going to be in the basement. You could mount these horizontal at the ceiling.0 -
monoflow question
thanks steve,i read in dans book pumping away that if using a monoflow system and the rads are below the piping you should use two monoflow tees.i just like the idea of the manifold as i can feed each rad individually and running the pex will be better as there is not much space.0
