I have a hot water system which was converted from oil to gas many years ago. It also had a tankless heater which was replaced by a Rheem Natural gas unit.
My question is this. The furance still tries to warm the water up even though the thermostats are set low. Like it's trying to maintain the low temperature.
My understanding is that the gas unit for heating purposes should only kick on when the thermostat triggers the circulator pumps to circulate the hot water.
I just turned on the main switch today and when I did that the burner (gas) kicked on. Even with the thermostats set low.
I know I'm going to get hammered this year with natural gas prices going up and I'm just trying to conserve cash.
Thanks, Chuck.
