buderus question

I am replacing my existing boiler and water heater with a buderus g115/28 and indirect water heater.I like what i have read about the buderus logamatic control hs2109.I have been told to forget that control and use a priority relay with cold start or if I wanted to keep the boiler warm use a triple aquastat set at a low temp.Should if keep the boiler warm or go cold start? What has been your experience with the logamtic control hs2109?--Any help or suggestions would be very helpful--thank you

HS-2109
The HS-2109 allows you better control of the tank temp and prioritizes the DHW.
You may want to consider the HS-2107 which offers outdoor reset.
Cold start is no problem for the Buderus. With an indirect fired water heater I would not recommend maintaining a low temp in the boiler as it gains you nothing.
Hope this helps!

I agree with Mark
Cold start is not a problem with the 115. I would highly recommend the 2107 control with outdoor reset. This alone will save you some $$$ on your heating bill. The 2107 is also programmable for setback temps. There are a bunch of factory installed programs in it right out of the box or you can customize it any way you want. Think long and hard about the extra $300-$400 expense now vs. 10-20% savings on your fuel bill for as long as you own that boiler. Energy prices will never go down.0 -
Right On!!
Steve's got it pegged...selecting the right control is critical and the integral Logomatic control with outdoor reset would be a no-brainer. This boiler is designed for cold start.

With Buderus
There is no point to maintaining a "low temp" as the circulator supplying the domestic hot water heat exchanger will not start untill the boiler temp is 10 *F above the temp in the tank.
