    Somehow that doesn't surprise me. How is the install otherwise now?

    I can think off hand of two really good steam guys in Massachusetts. PIty you didn't have one..

    A wet rotor circulator should not be used in that application. A bronze series 100 or equivalent is what's needed with a strainer before it.

    I'm in MA and have copper near boiler piping I need redone. Care to share who you trust in MA? I'm already in the queue for NE Steamworks, but hoping to find at least one more expert to come out and give an opinion/quote.
