hi
I have a fantastic muti fuel stove. It was not designed to heat rads. It was however designed to heat water. It is connected to the hot water tank and it is fantastic at heating the water. There is a towel rad fitted which is an overflow in case the tank gets too hot. Enough for a bath! I got a plumber to fit two small rads in the rooms either side of the tank. From this stove I get boiling hot water , kitchen where it is situated is like a sauna , and two rads nicely warm. And a towel rail...Its great value for money.

This is my query! Was there ever a device invented over the last few years like an adaptor that you can retro fit to this particular type of multi stove , which would enable it to what it is not designed to do...that is heat rads.

I'm thinking as there is pipes running from it to the hot water tank upstairs..( its already heating three small devices quite comfortably) I know there is a device that you can fit in the hot tank set up ...that will allow the stove to heat the rads ,,,should you wish to do that...This was a dear stove , with never an issue so I really don't want to go ripping it out ...

I have gas heating 2 zone HW and rads ...I think that is known as a closed system..and I think the stove set up is a closed system ..(not very good on plumbing!) Appreciate any advice.
Paddy
