Chuck, if you loss is 79,000 btus, you cant put in one 37,000 btu out put boiler to do the job. You need a bigger boiler. Plus if the 79,000 number is the exact loss, it may not do the job below design day temp. You also want an indirect DHW heater and you must make sure the boiler can handle the recover rate for your needs.
Do you have any help with your design?

Question
I have a house with a 79,000 Btu heat loss. I am considering using one hot water boiler and a holding tank to feed a hot water coil in an air handler. Would this work with a 50,000 input, 37,000 output boiler or would I be better off to use 2 boilers at hese ratings with a lead lag system and ambient reset?0 -
for such a small....
load 2 boilers is really not cost effective. kpc
