: I was looking again at your pictures and saw your circulator looks to be a B&G. What numbers are on the side?

Hi Steve,
So the two B&G circulators are 0.76A/85W on the main line (lower one) and the one for the second circuit is 0.8A/92W.

: Also, you had mentioned that the boiler was moved. Do you know if it was leaking in the past from any place that would cause it to make up (add) water?

There was no leakage but there was seepage from a bad pressure relief valve and that was made up with fresh water every now and then. That relief valve was changed about a year or two before the recent boiler move. I read about the downside of letting fresh water frequently into the system so I keep the feed valve closed now and the pressure at cold temp. is holding constant so I think I have no leaks in the system.
