Wow. Paul Pollets, so if I understand this correctly. I can  intergrate UNibox E Plus heating control in to my quick trak pex zone, and that will basically replace the need for a mixing and pump station with the same effectiveness?? Your information on this product is greatly appreciated and may save a lot of time on my part.  Also where can I purchase the Oventrop products?

good info

I think I will choose Quik Trak. The kitchen is 144 square feet. Can I get a mixing station (circulator, temp gauge, manifold, etc) prefabricated? If so is there one you would recommend over others. As time goes I would like to remove all the convector's in the house and convert to radiant floor heating.

I have a one story ranch home with a finished basement apartment. I want to install radiant heating on the main floor kitchen. I pulled the convector out and ripped the floor down to the floor joists. Should I use Pex with gypsum crete slab over the sub floor or put in a Uponor Quik Trak system over the sub floor? Ceramic, natural stone, marble, or equivalent tile will follow over the radiant floor. Also does my new retrofitted radiant floor need to have its own thermostat or zone? Can I just tap into the existing copper pipes of the convector after converting them to pex and have it controlled by the existing thermostat?

Any other tips and suggestions to make this heat as efficient as possible would be appreciated. Thanks

the flame just drops out and the burner continues to run in pre-purge before refiring from what i'm looking at.  A bit of white smoke has puffed back from the boiler after hitting the restart button this morning in addition to an odd smell.

My Reillo Burner is hooked up to a Weil-McLain Boiler if that changes things a bit.

Burner keeps tunring off and on with very short intervals. (one-two minutes at a time).  Burner will go back on without pushing the reset.
