    More Zones

    Does that mean further division of the radiator zones in your diagram?

    Don't forget TRVs!

    Don't forget....

    The area that of the 2" pipe is also the area that can have reverse flow.......if you have a smaller zone that may have a 007 pump on it and has some preety high heads, then your flow through that zone may only be a few GPM.... now the Ultra boiler needs to run to supply some more BTU's to the system.... wham....that 0011 kicks in and the water all of a sudden has to slam into reverse!!!!! Better have the room for some turbulence because it's gonna happen....in this case bigger IS better.

    i like trvs - however not when they are buried into..

    the wall and imposable to service...and you know that going to happen to the CI rads in this system, now if i can convince them to put some myson panels up, then we're talking, my sales pitch besides economy, is safety for her small children, with the myson safety rad designed for children's rooms

    I am currently on a job and came across a problem with a radiant loop. The previous plumber installed a continious loop of 750' from the boiler room the floor is 3 stories high. How do I correct this problem. NOTE: tubing is already inbedded in cement
