    Looks nice and clean.

    Before you finish though, is it still possible to increase the distance of straight pipe going into your air seperator.

    Those models need about 18" of straight pipe for laminar flow, so the air seperates from the water, and allows the scoop to "scoop" it up.
    "Better tell the sandman to stay away, because we're gonna be workin on this one all night."

    "Dude, you need more than 2 wires to a condenser to run a 2 stage heatpump."

    "Just get it done son."

    Lol I know but it's all cast iron rads so in reality it don't even need one, otherwise I would have been more concerned.

    Are you sure your "T" fittings are spaced close enough together? Is that a secondary LWCO at the top of the boiler loop? If so why? Looks clean, get one of the mods to move it to WOP

    The tees have to be a maximum of "12 apart, our inspector still requires a LWCO even though it has one internally. I think I will msg a mod, thought they would have done it by now lol.
