Heat exchanger on water heater
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am attempting to install aheat exchanger on my water heater. The exchanger is straight forward. But the water heater will need equiptment and repiping. Pump, mixing valve, aqua-stat and mayby more. Looking to find diagram or sequence of equiptment. Any info more than I have now.
Thanks Phylvessey

This does not sound like a traditional hot water heater, can you give us more details regarding what you have?

75 gal electric. Attempting to to use my boiler through a heat exchanger to heat domistic hot water. The boiler loop to the exchanger is set up. To run the water heater through it would require a pump circulating the water heater. A mixing valve to temper domistic hot out to house as boiler /exchanger temp is much to high. A device would be needed to turn on the pump at water heater temperature X. what is this device and how does it work.

I need to let Tom or Mark handle this since I do not work on boiler, I do drink them though.
