New install. Eg75. 6 unit bldg. Indirect hot water tank. New returns, new main vents, new air vents all radiators.
I have a water reader. Boiler is taking in about a gallon or so a day of water, is this normal?
What could cause this? Maybe i have a tiny leak on new undergroung return?
I appreciate any input.

Second that. My now 6 year old WM uses about a quart a day -- max -- in cold weather when it's working hard, and almost nothing otherwise. And I think that's more than it should...BobC said:You probably have a leak somewhere. Check all the piping joints, and all valves and vents. I would be suspicious of any piping that goes underground,
