new circuit

straideman

hi all.this is my first post.im thinking of seriously getting rid of my oil and its costing to much so im gonna get some plumber to do work for me but id like to know from here wat to ask and expect and if its possible,im moving on in years having spent most of my life in the construction

rite so bear with me

i currently have an oil boiler doing my hot water and underfloor
i also have a range doing hot water and is linked into underfloor

i fing my corridor area in the house the coldest spot in the house so i plan to put in 3 radiators

was thinking of putting in another stove to work these but is it possible to take it off the range circuit
id also like the option of opening and closing the underfoor circuit from the range circuit as it would allow me to get more heat to the three rads

basically lads the the underfloor is costing me a fortune by oil more so than solid fuel

im thinking 3 good radiators wud nearly heat the hall and rooms off it just as good

thanks for any replies

Is your oil boiler currently connected straight to your underfloor heating?

for starters, oil boilers are not designed to heat underfloor heating as its running all the time so its going to cost alot, and i take it you got a solid fuel stoves which is not designed to do underfloor also.
