    Navien combi 190/060h, will Taco VT2218 temp sensors conflict with boiler temp sensors?

    I have the Navien 190/060h combi boiler. I have it set up as a single zone. I purchased a Taco VT2218 pump for the hydronic heating loop. It has its own temp sensors for supply and return. The boiler itself also has supply and return temp sensors that are available as an additional...

    Which brand black pipe is good for gas? Had threads tear off on home depot pipe.

    Not sure if you guys are familiar with Ferguson supply, but I found the following. I know you said A53 which it lists in the part number, but it has other letters and numbers which I'm not sure what they mean. Will this suffice? Global Black Carbon Steel Pipe: Manufacturer part#: GBPTOA53F10

    Can someone look over the piping on my Navien Combi?

    Lol. Thank you, I'm glad to hear it will be ok the way it is. The only stainless to stainless I believe I did was the stainless bushings coming out of the primary loop manifold on each end. See the manufacturer's stainless female adapter? I have a stainless bushing coming out of each one...

    Can someone look over the piping on my Navien Combi?

    So I installed this myself in my home. A plumber friend of mine pointed out a few things and I would like to know what you guys think before I change things. Here are the things he pointed out: 1) The stainless bushings that come off the naviclean's female adapters will galvanic corode...

    Which brand black pipe is good for gas? Had threads tear off on home depot pipe.

    Hey guys. Just wondering which brand black pipe you guys use for gas nowadays? I had a bad experience with Home Depot where the threads kept tearing off. I thought it was the threader, but it wound up being the pipe. I dont recall which was the bad brand, so Im hoping soneone can steer me...

    Looking to get Navien NCB-190-060H Combi boiler for basement apartment. A few questions on heating zone pump type and adding temperature sensors.

    NCB-190/060H I realize this is probably a little overkill for this application, but this is the smallest Combi Navien offers. This would be for a 1 bedroom basement apartment. 1 Laundry, 1 kit sink, 1 dishwasher, 1 full bath, two 8ft hydronic fin tubes for heat. If the 2nd bedroom is incuded...

    Understanding venting for a bathroom.

    Hey guys. I've been reading alot and trying to understand and learn different scenarios of venting bathrooms. I find it pretty interesting. So I came across a website that posted a customer's idea of how to pipe out a bath. Obviously it was posted as a "what not to do". Anyway, the poster...

    Which pvc fittings for vents?

    Thank you. I was thinking to use long radius elbows and combo tees. Am I gaining anything by doing this or am I just wasting money? I was thinking it would be less restriction when pulling/replacing air?

    Which pvc fittings for vents?

    I am piping out a vent setup for 2 basement baths. I see that home depot sells long radius, regular, and short radius fittings. 1) Which of the 3 should be used? 2) When using tees for the vents, should I be using combo fittings, sanitary tees, or just regular tees?

    Basement underground and vent plans for 2 baths and kitchen.

    I appreciate that advice. It's good to know not too much needs to be changed. However, I have a few questions. 1) So when you say you "can" go horizontal below flood level rim when "drainage fittings" are used, are you referring to the combo fitting that you just mentioned as being a...

    Condensate pump recommendation for Alpine Burnham 80k btu?

    I currently have a Utilitech Pro(UL-AC-pump). It still pumps after 9 years, but last night I noticed it kept running constantly which tells me maybe the float is sticking. So I assume it will burn out if I dont replace or fix. Problem is they dont sell this one anymore and I believe I stayed...
