Hi All - I am trying to add 3 panel radiators to an already installed NCB-180e. The original installer put in a closed loop with an expansion tank and an air vent and let it go at that. The 3 small radiators will only draw less than 2 GPM when all three are open so to prevent short cycling I...

Hi All - I am redoing all of the plumbing in an older house. We plan on getting rid of all the galvi and replacing it with either copper or PEX. My question is regarding the 1-1/2" pipe going from the primary system to the pressure tank (we are on a domestic well). The layout of the garage and...
