I bought this water heater

@AaronBishop-st2ow

This was an exact replacement for the old one that lasted about 10 years.

I've been plumbing 4 20 years and have done everything from residential to 30 million dollar plumbing/mechanical projects. That has involved solar, geothermal, boilers and hydronic systems. Great job on your understanding of the system 👏 best video so fair.

Thanks brother, very helpful, I’m a retired builder going to build a small cottage in New Mexico so this worked out perfectly for that.

Valves Valves Valves ! Your layout is vey well done and from a engineering standpoint is excellent . being able to turn off a valve or two to isolate a part makes things like this so much less complicated. I use to design equipment and the parts manage would always get mad because I used so many valves. But no one complained when we had to fix something.

I have had a thought regarding this type of system. What about a connection from the incoming cold water line to the line going to the in-floor or radiator system? In the winter, you can operate the system just as you show in your video. In the summer, you could shut off the line going to the bottom of the water heater on the left side, and shut off the hot water line right at the upper right exit on the water heater, and open the bypass line to direct cold water to the in floor loops first. This would cause the cold water to circulate through the home before entering the water heater at the lower right side. You would not only keep continuous flow in your system, but the could be some added benefit from the cool water flowing through the house. If you think this type of setup might work, my only question would be in regard to the placement of the overflow tank. You might possible need to install a second one after the circulator pump for pressure control in the cooling season. In that case the by-pass connection could go before the tank on the left side of the setup. What are your thoughts on this idea?

This was such a wonderful explanation, thank you! So many U.S. plumbers don't seem to know anything about these simple systems, and manufacturers don't make it easy to find models with the hydronic/recirculating loops on their web sites. If you have a condo in which one of these was built in like we do, you really don't have any other option. This video helped with a pointer to the AO Smith Polaris model as well, which is a good brand and helped us in our research.

We love the heat exchange version with two separate loops and are planning to do this in our earth sheltered home build this summer. We are posting a video today and we hope you are ok that we linked to this and shared a picture with your channel info on what we are hoping to do. We actually have a question about how many btu's we would actually need for our application. Thanks so much for a great informative video! ~Kathie

Im building a system similar to your described with a heat exchanger. Great tip on valves to allow flushing and cleaning of the exchanger

THANK YOU. As stated in a comment below there are some 'short-comings', BUT with a couple mods, this is a great system.

Nice vid guy! I’m showing this to my wife to help explain my own system. FYI I’m using separate heat on demand systems. With wood boiler tie ins Plus use a un-insulated holding tank for well water to reduce size on heater needs. It’s much easer to heat room temp water than ground temp water. Again nice learning vid
