Check out my response on page 2.
Are you referring to post #16?
My page is set up so this is page #2 and post #32.
It looks like the OPs last time to this page was back in 2023.

I have a 1400 sq. ft. apartment in central Maine in a renovated barn with radiant floor heating. The floors downstairs are concrete and upstairs wood. A Tarm gasification boiler with 820 gallon storage tank is used to heat the floors and DHW. This system was designed by professionals and the total heat load is 40kBTUs/hr. It is a passive solar design so when the sun shines it helps but it doesn't shine a lot in the winter. I have been very happy with the system but I would like to leave for a week or two and I'm looking for a back up system, any recommendations would be appreciated.
An inline electric or propane water heater with a remote thermostat in the water jacket or tee's into a line were it will get cold first if you are trying to protect the boiler if it's outside.

No Lou, the post above mine from earlier today.... not that I've never responded to a very old post that made absolutely no sense. 😆
I'm also on my phone.
