Heating Question for a Levitt Ranch in Hicksville (houses, floors)

[wickedkhalsa]

Hi folks.. I was just curious about the frequency of the oil burner comin on in my levitt ranch...I have a normal size levitt ranch and the heating system is 2 zone . I have the thermostat set at 68 degrees and the heating kicks in almost every 10 minute frequency .. is that normal.. well the it is bitterly cold outside .. I was just wondering and I do have a new burner.. thank you...

There are soo many variables here. Are you sure the burner is kicking on? Is it the pump kicking on? Does your boiler produce your domestic hot water?

it does produce domestic water... but the heat kicks in every 10 minutes as the indicator on the thermostat clicks .. and it does it every 10-12 minutes... was just wondering...

Does your house still have the heated floors?

Levitt put alot of nice touches nto his houses. Too bad he was racist. O well.

Sounds like its short cycling........it needs to be tuned up.
