Hi Mikey thoughts on oil fired boiler with an indirect water for a new house? Maximum 225 gallons for the first hour draw seems pretty good for a 2 bathroom house compared with tankless?

if you speed the up the video it sounds mechanical listen to the audio at 2x speed. sounds like an old steam locomotive. i also poop with socks on

[@throttlebottle5906]

the surging pressure, is probably from the radiant circulator and thermostatic mixing valve. I didn't didn't catch exactly how it was plumbed, but it's probably done wrong. 🧐

[@throttlebottle5906]

@@PipeDoctor if your positive it wasn't running, then one of the other zones has air/vapor locking and not circulating or dead heading. next time shut off both return/supply pair at once to isolate. alternately, there's radiator valve/shutoff/etc. in one or more of the loops turned off and dead-heading. any of the above will cause surging like that. that's far to severe to be "boiler surge" from schmutz build up.

Boiler surge...... Time to add a can of 8-way boiler treatment.

[@lnk4328]

Shut the burner off and see if surging stops.

Great video. Love the approach. Keep being you. Let’s talk soon. 💸💸

I’m just wondering if the issue with the tridicator gauge is air in the steam lines? This is coming from someone who has never worked on a steam boiler in his life. Just a thought.

[@throttlebottle5906]

this is where I'll go "smug azz", what clown put that pipe so close in front of the zone relays box! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 irl, should have rotated the 90 straight off tank bottom to an 45 upward angle, then put a 45 to go vertical to the other pipe, leaving a clear space around the box. or 45 off the tank then to combo shutoff/drain valve. hindsight is 20/20. lol for putting it in your own way. 🤪🤡🥳

Both manufacturers are exceptional, American companies who design create and build some of the best boilers in America.

Nope? 😐👍🏻🍺🍺🍺🥃🥃🇺🇲

[@realestateservicessaleshea99]

@PipeDoctor could be air trapped in the system ???

[@scottmaz4063]

I have never seen a tridicator bounce like that. That's weird

[@scottmaz4063]

Only thing I can think of is the feed valve is partially clogged and not filling it properly.

8:10 WTF?! That Tridicator gauge is bouncing like Tigger from Winnie the Pooh.

[@wolfy33789]

@@PipeDoctor the boiler is surging probably for some reason maybe temperature related because as the boiler ran I noticed the noise slowed down, but definatly unusual especially on a hot water boiler.
