Priority Control Devices such as a flow switch, an Aquastat or other electronic controller can be used to
prioritize the domestic water system over the heating system.
Warning: Follow all local codes, or in the absence of local codes, follow the most recent edition of the
National Standard Code, ANSI Z21. 10.3.
Warning: This illustration is a concept design only. The reference to the 1/8 th hole in check is only for
the State of Massachusetts. There are a wide variety of variations to the application of controls and
equipment presented. Designers must add all necessary safety and auxiliary equipment to conform to
code requirements and design practice. For more details, contact the Takagi Technical Department at

* Size the pump to provide at about 2 GPM through the system at 15 Ft of Head plus applications
and piping head losses. 2 GPM will allow the system to operate at its optimal performance.
* If the application requires a higher re-circulating flow rate, make sure that the re-circulating flow
rate is no greater than 4 GPM. If the flow rate is too high, the system could be damaged by
erosion.
