It is an Everhot 85H Tankless Hot Water Heater. It looks like a tank the size of a 5 gallon bucket. I'm sure that it's just a heat exchanger. It has 4 pipes plumbed to it. The one on the bottom has a circulator pump. The Aquastat is mounted on the side near the bottom of the tank.

If I turn the Aquastat up to 200 F, will this cause and issues/damage with the rest of the system?

: : Thank you HeatPro

: : I believe that it is losing about 2 inches a week, but I don't see any water around the boiler, is it leaking inside and being burned off?
: +++ If you raise the water level above the sight glass, you might see water pour over a leak at the water line.

: Can I increase this temp by adjusting the Aquastat on the external tankless hot water tank? +++Try it and see. Also find out what it is, an 'external tankless hot water tank' is a misnamed object.
