<DIV><SPAN class=749581619-23092008><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've got a project
where a central hot water / boiler system serves several secondary
loops...one is a domestic hot water loop, but most are hot water heating
loops. When I assign the DHW loop to the primary loop, it forces me to
change it to a "hot water" type circulation loop. This would be fine,
since I can just establish a process load under the DHW loop and keep it as a
"hot water" loop....however, I'm getting errors about no flow in the DHW
secondary loop, even though I currently have a specific GPM assigned to the loop
for 24 hrs a day, 365 days a year.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=749581619-23092008><FONT face=Arial size=2>Is this error
related to the fact that there is no actual connected load to the loop, other
than a process load? In other words, does the loop HAVE to have some sort
of return water volume to justify it as a "loop"?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
