Outdoor temp 48 F, indoor temp 68 F, target supply temp 98 F. The TT Prestige Solo 60 fires for 3.5 minutes at low fire on a 9 minute cycle (so, 6.5 cycles/hour.) The burner engages when supply (and return) drops to 92, and disengages when it reaches 112.
On a side note, this seems like a rather low heat loss...

Technically you are more than 6 cycles per hour. In reality that seems pretty good. With such a light load, it seems unavoidable."If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough"
