    Hi,
    I am looking for a pellet stove for a timer frame house. Really it is for space heating. The catch is that the house will be air tight and draw air in externally. I have a few queries that people might clear up for my.

    -) Is it possible to get a room sealed pellet stove for closed combustion.
    -) Am I limited to 5kw stove as per building regulations as I believe if I go over 5kw, Then I might need an external air vent on the wall.

    -) Flues, and chimneys. Can a twin wall flue be sufficient if the flue or chimney is internal to the stud. I am trying to find out if a twin flue or a free standing chimney breast that confirms to the regulationsfor timberframe. Really I would like to have a lined chimney so externally at ridge level it looks like a conventiona breast but internally it will be free standing or at least timberframe ties to attach it to the frame.

    I hope I explained this correctly

    Regards,

    The following is taken from the Charter of the Construction and Planning Forum....

    Wood pellet Burners: Any queries on wood pellet boilers should be posted in the Renewable Energies .Any further posting about these in this forum will result in an immediate ban unless it is part of a planning application.

    That is why the thread was moved here to Renewable Energies.
    Please read the Charter before posting.
