in Radiant Heating
I have a vitodens 200 with radiant throughout the house and it works perfect
The only problem that I have is that the vent on side of the house gets ice build up on very cold weather , and water drips on 30 or above degree weather. Any suggestions ?
Please note that vent has enough pitch !

    Can you post a photo of the vent termination area?

    That vent does not appear to be pitched in the right direction. Normally, the condensate is supposed to roll backwards to the boiler, and not forward to the vent termination. A little accumulation of ice is acceptable, but yours will build up some HUGE ice sickles.

    Refer to the installation manual...
