Setup for Domestic Hot Water on
a Lead/Lag System
There are three ways that a Brute system can be
set up to provide domestic hot water. Two of them
involve the use of an indirect water heater. In
a system including an indirect water heater, hot
water is circulated through a piping loop which runs
through an insulated water tank. Heat from the
water in the loop is transferred to the water in the
tank, and the heated water in the tank is used as
domestic hot water.
Setup Type 1 –
All of the boilers in the system can be set up to react
together if there is a call for domestic hot water.
This arrangement can be used for BNTH or BNTV
units. When BNTH units are used in this kind of
setup, the demand for domestic hot water (DHW) is
given priority over the demand for central heat (CH).
If the system is producing heat for a CH demand,
and a call for DHW arrives, all of the boilers will
stop producing heat for CH, and the whole system
will respond to the DHW demand. The DHW pump
will start circulating water through the loop in the
indirect water heater. The System sensor is used to
control modulation in this configuration, so sensor
placement is critical.
This arrangement can be cumbersome if the
demand for domestic hot water is a lot less than
the demand for central heating. This can result in
multiple boilers "idling" as they wait for the DHW
demand to be satisfied.
For BNTH units - This arrangement can only be
used in applications where all of the components
in the system are rated for both the maximum
Caution
hydronic temperature and the maximum DHW outlet
temperature.
The setup for this is all done from within the Lead/
Lag system. You will need to set up an LL CH
setpoint and a separate LL DHW setpoint, and
assign the priority to the DHW demand.
The input from the aquastat is brought to terminals
5 and 6 on TB6 on the controller which is acting as
the Lead/Lag Master. (Usually, this is the Primary
controller on Boiler 1.)
