Solid fuel back boiler + no indirect heating cylinder

Ubbquittious · 2017-12-20 11:18:22

The way I understand it the gravity-fed circuit up to a vented water cylinder is the only proper way of running rads off a back boiler stove. But what if you have no use for the hot water supply? Is there an alternative configuration possible?

You could have a buffer tank that’s open vented and pump the rads from it
