Hi Rob! The use of glycol in the Takagi Tankless Water Heaters will void the manufacturer's warranty. If it is still used despite that, then it cannot be used for radiant heat only, rather It must be an application where the unit is also hooked up to at least one potable water line. However, the warranty will still be void.
The T-H3 can be vented with Category III stainless steel venting like a TK2 would have used.
It could, however the pump would need to be sized properly. From the manual, "The recirculation pump is to provide no less than 2 GPM (7.5 L/min) and no more than 4 GPM (15 L/min) through each activated unit in the system."
From the manual, "1. The water heater must be in Stand By to increase the temperature. 2. Press the "HOT" button to set 140 °F (60 °C). 3. Press and hold the "INFO" button and the "HOT" button for at least 3 seconds. The remote will emit a beep and change to 145 °F (63 °C). 4. Press the "HOT" button to set up to 185 °F (85 °C)."
Please see page 45 of the owners manual for instructions on raising the temperature.

Part 9007604005 is the suggested valve kit for this unit.
This unit would most likely be a good choice for a dual-use application that includes 850 square feet of space heating and two showers. Space-heating sizing would be based on the BTU requirement. This heater can safely handle up to about 50,000 to 60,000 BTUs with properly sized circulators. Domestic water sizing is based on peak per-minute usage with tankless water heaters. This unit can provide about 5.5 gallons per minute at a 70°F temperature rise. This means that it could handle two simultaneous showers (assuming typical flow rates) during times of the year when the unit would need to make incoming water 70°F warmer. Using a heat exchanger to isolate the space-heating system would normally be recommended in this type of job. Primary/secondary piping will almost always be necessary when using a tankless water heater for space heating. A flow switch can be used to give priority to domestic water. Always check with local code before planning a dual-use application.
No, you cannot convert LP units to NG.
Water temperature can be set to up to 185 degrees using the included temperature controller.
