Hot Topics with Hot Rod Episode 1


Join Caleffi and HeatingHelp.com for Episode 1 of Hot Topics with Hot Rod premiering on Monday, July 13 at 7pm CDT.

EPISODE 1: Buffed. Wow, Look At THAT Tank!
Monday, July 13, 2020
7 - 8 pm CDT


@hot_rod will take a look 🤓 at when and why you should consider a hydronic buffer tank. He'll share his sizing tips and explain how to pipe these tanks. To make it even more interesting, Hot Rod will let you jump inside the buffer tank and piping during a LIVE demo. Want to join in the conversation? We'll open up the mic 🎤 for you. Watch out! Hot Rod may throw in a give-away or two.

Have a topic-related question? Please post it below.

During each Episode of Hot Topics, we're selecting a charity to support. Johns Hopkins Medicine is busy in the assault on COVID-19 and we are going to join them in that endeavor. BOTH HeatingHelp.com and Caleffi will MATCH up to $500 in donations to the charity. Want to help? Simply let us know in the post-webinar survey. We will provide the donation link for your information following the webinar. Thanks for considering!

    Thanks Erin and HH for sponsoring the series.

    Here is a sneak preview of a clear tank and piping I am building for the live demo. We will see how the various piping arrangements work, air removal, etc.

    I’m signed up. Looking to see how HR is going to 'Cirque du Soleil' himself into that tank!
    And I’ll be wearing the t shirt I won a few months ago.

    Nice. I'm looking forward to this. I'm in the middle of getting materials together to add a buffer tank to my oversized boiler.

    @luketheplumber, the shirt is a giveaway at the webinar. @hot_rod asks a trivia question and the winner gets a shirt.

    Yep, it will be archived on several YouTube channels, the Caleffi one for sure, I think Erin has an archive also.
