Hello! New member here but I've been reading the forum for some time now.
I've recently installed a KBN211 in my detached workshop. The boiler wasn't a choice, I just happened to get it at a really good price used. My system is just in-floor heating with 3 circuits totaling about 1000 ft of 1/2 pex fed by a 3/4 inch manifold.
I have been having lockout issues and I suspect that potentially flow might be an issue. I only have a system pump (can't recall the model, 1/25hp). I've basically followed the installation guide but didn't install a boiler loop, although I do have the pump supplied from Lochinvar with the boiler. To be honest, I didn't really understand the loop shown in the "near boiler piping" in figure 6-2A of the installation manual.
I am not a plumber, I just thought it was a good challenge to install myself and the stakes were pretty low since it's in the barn. My plumber doesn't have experience with Lochinvar, he usually installs Navien combi-boilers, which is what I have in my house.
Any advice would be appreciated.
