Be sure your thermostat is not selecting heat and check that the pump bypass switch on the Oasis distribution module (silver box in basement) is not in the Run position. Sometimes it’s hard to see the switch but if you flip it to Run you should hear the circulation pump run; flip it off and pump should stop, assuming no thermostat is calling for heat.
We were incorrectly told to turn that switch “on” when using heat. That switch is needed only to purge air from the closed-loop Oasis coolant system. You shouldn’t ever need to turn it on. If it is on it will circulate Oasis coolant through all your heat exchangers regardless of thermostat setting.
