Thermal Shock!

Update!! Over the weekend I turned my system from a constant circulation. To just using the pump when the house calls for heat. Handfed sits at about 155 degrees. Axeman sits in basement at just about 180. The colder return water sucks some life out of both the boilers,it returns to the handfed first. But they spring right back rather quickly.
No more hot house when it gets above 40 outside. Thanks for the help and suggestions!!

Your boilers are plumbed in series? Are you running both?

Ya. It’s a sickness. I wouldn’t have too. But I do use the handfed for burning food scraps cardboard an junk mail.
