Vitodens in Closet-PGP

can be a challenge...we replaced a 75g nat gas water heater and direct vented CI boiler with a Vitodens 8/32, low loss header and 79g VitoCell Indirect DHW Tank. The 4000SF home has 2 zones of baseboard and a 3rd fl air handler w/HW coil. The owner of the home happens to be German,and he was very enthused to use the finest heating appliances from his homeland. He'll replace the CFT B/B with wall panel rads next year. We had to set the boiler lower than usual because of head height and pitched vent requirements. We installed the venting kit before hanging the boiler, to make sure everything would fit. The system condenses less than having radiant floors, but we slowed the integral pump down which increased condensation and and boiler efficiency. I'll do a final combustion test next week when it gets colder. The 79g DHW tank took 12 min. to recover from 60deg to 125deg, with 112K btu's dedicated to priority tank recovery. The (2) baseboard zones are controlled with Oventrop zone valves. The Low Loss Header has a sensor to adjust the heating curve for the B/B. The AHU is wired to independently bring the boiler up to 155deg., using the aux. terminals within the integral control.
