Low flow electric micro boiler plumbing?

Drake · 09-04-20, 12:34 PM

Is it really necessary to plumb a hydronic floor system with an electric boiler that is 1 temp, 1 zone(with only three loops) with the primary loop/secondary loop design that I have seen said needed by some micro boiler manufacturers that needs two pumps. I want to invest in a good new ECM pump so only one pump saves. Boiler will be heating 500 sq' single slab each night so it should'nt be short cycling
