Greetings Dana,

Others have also talked about the A.S. problem with building
heat/overheating.  I've only done a few such heaters but I thought I
remembered AquaStar as making (having made?) a "Solar" model that
differs from the standard models in that it will allow water to pass
through the unit without adding any additional heat if the temp of the
incoming water (such as from a tempering tank or baseboard heater) is
already warm enough.  I haven't bought one for some time but thought it
had an "S" designation in the model number -- Kurt Nelson
