Stove question

    Looking for a bit of advice. I have a hercules 30kw boiler stove and oil. I am finding that if I need to heat all my rads I have to really fire up the stove which means you would do well to sit in the room with the heat. So I only keep small fires on and switch on the oil when needed. Would I be better off just replacing the stove to a non boiler one.

    Definitely. Unless your stove fuel is free, it is costing you way more than the oil to run if you have to run it at full tilt.
    You could however look at a stronger circulation pump or getting a heat hero fitted to drive the hot water around faster.
