Hello, thanks for writing in. These two aquastats are very similar, however, they have different electrical ratings.
That model is the closest current replacement.
yes 180 is fine for baseboard or cast iron radiators.
hello did you check the pressure in expansion tank with a pressure gauge? should be 12psi cold and 0 psi in boiler,then fill boiler to 12psi what temp is the aquastat set at and is the boiler going higher than set temp should be set @ 180F sometimes you have to bleed a little pressure off from a cold start if all correct,boiler shouldn't go over 30psi and blow relief
Aquastat is not your problem with respect to pressure. Sounds like your expansion tank is probably waterlogged. What kind of pressure reducing valve did you put in?
The 1265 control is most often used for pex tubing where the temp high end setting should not exceed 180 degrees which is a safe setting for a hot water system. A higher setting would melt the pipe if metal pipe is used a different control with a higher temp range can be used.
hello you consider trying a electronic aquastat, i have been installing HYDROLEVEL (MODEL 3250 IS A GOOD ONE) they can be installed on almost any old boiler and have many energy saving features and are not expensive but dont know what model of boiler you have, so cant say for sure if its a good choice
according to the wiring diagram for boiler with intermittent ignition the original control was a L8148E 1257 that part # changes to a L8148E 1265 which has the plug for the damper motor
1265 if pex tubing used, reason the temp range of 1299 starts at 180 add diff of 15 degrees and you will likely melt pex tubing.
The L8148E1257 is the listed unit for this boiler. The 1265 will work for you. Set the high limit at the lowest setting - 180 degrees.
L8148E1265 is the recommended replacement.
All, In 2010 I asked the following question Message: I have to order a Honeywell L8148E auqastat relay. I noticed you have 2 models, the L8148E1265 and the L8148E1299. What is the difference? Sincerely, Anno J. Cazemier. And below the answer I got. Hello, The unit ending in 1265 has a 40 VA transformer where the unit ending in 1299 has a 50 VA transformer. Other then the voltage rating they are the same. If there is any other way we can help or if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reply to this email. Have a great day. I do not know what is different to the unit ending in 1190 Met vriendelijke groeten,
Yes, this is correct.
The spec is correct. This unit for metal pipe heating system only mainly steam
The replacement you need is part L8148J1009.
hello you should and may have to replace with the exact same control some of these HW controls are OEM only,specially made for that boiler the L8148E-1273 is for a slant fin boiler
NO, you don't need to drain the boiler,
No. The sensor fits into a well and is not in direct contact with boiler water.
No, I did not drain the boiler when I changed this and it works fine.danm
hello you don't have to drain the boiler, the bulb on the end of the capillary tube inserts into the well on the boiler the old control may have set screws or clamp to disconnect from the well also use the heat conductive grease that comes with it good luck
Not normally, unless in addition to the aquastat you also needed to change the hollow well on the boiler casting into which the capillary temperature sensor on the back of the aquastat inserts.
