Apollo Hydroheat Manual 5048
Anyone familiar with Apollo Hydroheat systems? I have one and hate it, have had 3 different contractors out over the past 2 years and none have been able to fix it, much less identify what is wrong other than the air temperature is not hot enough. The system is 14 years old, and I am thinking it is past its day, and time to replace. I won't be replacing it with another one, most likely switch to a gas furnace. If anyone knows anything about repairing the Apollo, before I plunk down money for a new HVAC system, I want to make sure I have exhausted all possible easy fixes.
I don't plan to stay in the house more than another year or two. Symptoms: Air temperature coming out of the ducts goes from 65-85 in about 8 minutes, then it starts dropping off quickly and finally settles at about 75 degrees. This is not warm enough to heat the house.
The hot water heater is new, and everything has been flushed through the furnace portion. Everything was clear. The temperature going into the furnace is 110 and returning at 85, within specs according to the repairman. The duct temperature coming out at the furnace is only 75. All the repair men have said they would be guessing on how to fix, one has said its the pump, another has said, no the pump either works or it doesn't. The water heater temperature is 140. Can't go much hotter without making indoor water too hot.
Also, don't have a thermal expansion tank, so turning it up hotter just makes it pressure release on the floor. Ellen EJ 9/10/2001, 18:02 น. Hard questions, I have been cold for a few years.
The air ducts are under the house where the unit is. Always pretty warm under there. Not sure if they are insulated, don't know how to tell. (repairman did check termperture of air at the unit before the air went into the ducts. Did this by punching a small hole in the metal and then inserted wire that hooked up to his temp reader. Then taped hole up.
Model HB30241G M87416825 (this was on my paperwork, don't know exactly what it refers to) Model is 1987 year. Air handler is under house, hot water is in a shed off the deck.
Probably about 30 feet from one another. City water Not sure about a mixing valve, don't think so because a plumber talked about installing one so that the water going into the house wouldn't have to be as hot as water going to the air handler. Didn't have it done though. 'Abby Normal' wrote in message news.837775@RedRat.CandW.ky. BGBevill 9/10/2001, 19:56 น.

The duct temperature coming out at the furnace is only 75. All the repair men have said they would be guessing on how to fix, one has said its the pump, another has said, no the pump either works or it doesn't. The water heater temperature is 140. Can't go much hotter without making indoor water too hot. Are you saying the water temp going into the coil is only 110º with the water heater temp 140º? Is the water losing 30ºbefore it gets to the coil?
I used to service many of these units and had one eat my lunch until I changed the pump. I really didn't see any way it could be the pump, but changing it cured the problem. Also, if the check valves in the water heater aren't installed and working correctly you could have a similiar problem. Bobby Ed 9/10/2001, 20:08 น.

I had an apartment complex full of those things and it usually turned out to be a blockage near the hot water tank. Look closely at the check valves near the tank. Ed EJ, 4:16 น.
