    We have used a couple and they work well. Just read the instructions thoroughly before installing and all will go smoothly. I believe there was a thread on the Mixing Block just recently here....do a search and you should find it.

    Mark, i took some pics today. of some pump blocks ....

    A friend of mine installed ...hes happy with them as they saved him lots of time..we share ideas around our neck of the woods and have decided that were we to designe it , there are a few things we would want added to the pump block,one is a vynil hose off the top of the air eliminator to vent and redirect any possible water from leaking down onto the pump block and its electrical Brain board...the other would be another means of connection to the board,...another would be a side compartment on the top right for low voltage(sensor) connections..and as i am currently bolting one to a plate there are a few things that i have yet to Discover on the way :) one thing id like to suggest is that you fully purge the fields and system side prior to installing them...not knocking anyone ...however..two of them have a distinctive cavitation growl so when i came over to fire the boilers and noticed it i asked if they had been purged properly,....well, sure he says,...well, when i noticed it it seemed that the thing to do was put more water into the system ,just in case, that seemed to help, buh, maybe its just me,,,none of the ones my other friend or i have installed do that.so, purge every thing well.
