Just curious,
Is there any reason I couldn't use a #67 LWCO to replace a #42? The 67 has contacts to control feeding a water feeder too. Just curious. There is a boiler feed pump on the system for making up water.

The #67 should not be used for a boiler-feed pump
Pumped-return requires the switches to activate every time the boiler needs water. The #67's switches aren't up to that job. They're fine for the occasional water feed on a gravity-return system, but that's it.All Steamed Up, Inc.
