I'm replacing a 20 year old Munchkin boiler that reportedly functioned well. I appears that the primary circulation pump from day one was installed backwards. Also the air separator / expansion tank is low and on the primary loop as opposed to secondary loop ... most design drawings have the separator and expansion on secondary loop? Weil-McLain manual also states the pump MUST be on the return line so as to avoid cavitation while sucking from supply? Reverse pump and leave it alone ? It worked for 21 years.
