[Equest-users] Create a Boiler

As far as I am aware, there is no way to do this directly.  The 
workaround discussed on this list recently was to add baseboard heating 
with the condensing boiler and then carefully schedule when that loop is 
in operation.  Certainly not the same thing as your ground loop return 
temperature profile will be incorrect.  You could perhaps also set your 
ground loop to lake/well so you can explicitly set the return water 
temperature if the condensing boiler is in operation for a significant 
portion of the year.

I really hope that this system type gets added to future versions -- it 
is a very good design option.
