    hot water recirc line

    New boiler installation. Existing boiler has a tankless coil with with gravity/natural convection recirc line. My question is when replacing the boiler do I tee the recirc. line into the mixed side of the tempering valve or directly from the hot side of the tankless coil. No money in job to install pump.

    circ. line

    looks o.k. but i have always made the connection into the main trunk line not the branch . don't know if it matters maybe one of the other pro's will comment on that. we always use a pump & aqustat . on the cold connection to the mixing valve we drop the cold connection 27" below the inlet to form a heat sink.
