Thank You everyone ~

I will have the well cleaned out and purchase recommended aquastat.

One more thing, where is your aquastat well located? It should be on the back of the boiler next to the tankless coil.

Does your boiler have a bypass piped between the supply and return header? If not, the water in the boiler will stratify and the aquastat will get a false temperature reading.
