Hi everyone , I'm a home owner installing a new Navien 240 Combi Unit. My local supply house didnt have the Pre-made manifold so i made my own. My question is , On the return , i used a standard 1'' T and i'm not sure if i should have used a monoflow or a Venturi Tee .....Any advice would be appreciated

    Standard tee is the right fitting. Good luck!

    Like this:

    The boiler circulator produces circulation through the boiler and another circulator(s) produces flow through the house (primary) loop.

    Regular Tees, absolutely no Monoflo or Venturi Tees.

    .. They use a 1 1/4" , run and spacing of the tees are critical ... No taps for purging the boiler or for a tridicator gauge ... No dielectric unions ... Venturi tee , wrong system , forget about .. Rip it out , make it easy , order the manifold ... Do it right grass hopper
    I have enough experience to know , that I dont know it all
