Will depend on Delta T, ie flowrate. I try to limit 3/4" to about 4 gpm.

    3/4 Pex

    What is the maximum BTU's that 3/4 pex can put out. The boiler is about 15' from the Air handler. I left my book at the office.....Thanks Anthony

    3/4\" Pex

    Approximately 3/4" can carry 40,000 Btu's (4 gpm) at a 20 degree delta T.

    You can alway push it with a bigger pump, especially on a short run like that, and get more BTU's, but why bother? Check the requirements on the coil, if it has 1" connections, and you actually have a demand and flow requirements, why fool around?

    I didn't mean to reiterate what was already posted. I just wanted to state it is the gpm was dependant on Delta T.

    I know, just having fun. You are of course, correct. Nice universal poll with all the parts explained.

    Thanks Jim
