With 4 gpm, is this about the basic piping?

With a low loss, is this close to correct?

: The heat loss of the home is about 40,200 btu/hr.
: OK, that translates to your needing 4 gpm. The boiler will modulate down to that need as the circulator takes water through at that rate.

: How can I calculate how much radiation is throwing off heat?
