I have a 275 gal. inside #2 tank with a standard boiler for heating the house and dom. HW. Last year, I installed a toyotomi heat on demand water heater and disconnected the boiler's tankless coil. When I connected the toyoyomi to the oil tank, I just put a tee in the oil line coming out of the filter and ran a second line to the toyotomi. I have had no problems with this setup whatsoever, even with both appliances running at once.
Now, having finished my basement over the summer, I installed a toyotomi OM-22 oil space heater in the new basement room. I added another tee in the oil line at the tank for that connection and ran a line approximately 60 feet. Now, I am having a problem. When the OM-22 is running and the main boiler kicks on, the om-22 will shut down with an error. I am pretty sure that the main boiler is pulling fuel out of the supply line to the om-22. I hit the reset valve on the om-22 and it will start right back up.
Is there a specific way that multiple appliances should be connected to the fuel tank? Should a check valve be used? Any help would be appreciated.
