Multifuel Stove With Back Boiler A multifuel stove that has a back boiler can heat radiators as well as supplying hot water to the property. This can save money on heating bills. It is easy to add a wood-burning stove that has an integrated back boiler to central heating systems that already exists. A competent plumber can do this. This article will explain the procedure. Features When a stove has a boiler, heat generated from burning wood or other fuel is used to heat water in a hot-water cylindrical device and to warm a space. A boiler stove is also able to provide heat to radiators in the home. We offer a wide range of multifuel stoves that have back boilers. All come with a full manufacturer warranty. A typical wood burner puts heat in one direction as it passes through a flue outlet. Multifuel stoves that have a back boiler generate more energy because the heat is distributed across multiple directions more efficiently. This means that more heat is directed to the room and less heat is lost through an outlet for the flue. Once the heat of a multifuel woodburning fireplace with a back boiler is used to heat a room it is then possible for this heat to be redirected elsewhere in the property by running a pipe loop. This can result in the heating of the hot water cylinder or radiators, or even a shower that is not pressurised. A thermostat is typically installed to keep track of the temperature of the hot water tank and turn on the radiators' pumps when the temperature reaches. This prevents hot water from running out and ensures the hot water cylinder has an uninterrupted supply of hot water for domestic use. The CSB multifuel with a back-boiler has an impressive output of 21, 000 watts. It can be used for the whole home via the central heating or even a water cylinder for the domestic. www.fireplacesandstove.com is a very adaptable stove that burns all types of wood logs as well as coal, anthracite, briquettes, and smokeless fuel. It can also be used as an independent wood burner heated by a thermosyphon. The CSB can be used with open and closed system type central heating installations (not compatible with pressurised systems). A CSB is usually supplied with the thermal store made of stainless steel or neutraliser tank. Fuel type The difference between a normal multi fuel stove and a log burner that has a back boiler is that the latter comes with a built-in water tank that can be used to heat domestic hot water supply and even radiators within your home. This feature makes boiler stoves a popular choice for environmentally-conscious homeowners who want to reduce their reliance on gas, oil or electricity. Wraparound boiler stoves are the most common kind of multifuel stoves that come with back boilers. They feature an water tank that runs along the sides and the back of the firebox. This means that the boiler portion of the stove is able to effectively hug the firebox, increasing heating efficiency and power output. Wraparound boiler stoves can be found from a number of leading manufacturers that include Stratford Stoves and Hunter Stoves. Another option is the clip-in boiler stove, which comes with a water tank which replaces the firebricks that are located at the rear of the stove's firebox. These stoves are not capable of producing large volumes of hot water, since the boiler tank has a smaller surface area than a wraparound boiler stove. You can put in a multifuel stove which has back boilers in your system in many ways however the most popular way is to pipe it as an element of an air-ventilated heating system. This allows the boiler stove to serve as an additional source of heating by turning on when the gas central heating comes on and topping up the temperature. Installing a wood-burning fireplace with the boiler back is possible by connecting it to a multi coil hot water tank or heat accumulator. In this case the stove will warm your hot water tank and then transfer it to your radiators through an electronic thermostat control valve. This setup is more complicated and should be carried out by a qualified heating technician. A multifuel stove that has a rear burner that is not installed correctly can be dangerous. This is because, when the stove is in use, the water inside the boiler is converted into steam, which could cause the system to explode if it's not properly vented. Fuel supply The heat from the stove's combustion is transferred to a tank of water through a boiler unit that is that is built into the back of the stove. You can utilize the heat in your home to lower carbon emissions and energy costs. This makes the stove more energy efficient, since heat isn't lost up the chimney. This type of stove is also referred to as back boilers or wetback stove. Most modern aesthetically designed multifuel stoves with back boiler have a hot water cylinder with the heating unit pre-built into the body of the appliance. The stove can be connected to the hot water system in your home to heat your taps and radiators. Some older boiler stoves might have a separate hot water cylinder, or they may have the boiler mounted into an open box that can be fitted to the top of the fire chamber. This model has a huge firebox with a huge glass window made of ceramic. It is complemented by an “ advanced air wash system'to keep an unobstructed view of the flames. The large stove also has both top and bottom (Primary and Secondary) air vents to enable simple but effective control over the burn rate and heat output. The chrome door handle and air control give the stove an elegant appearance. A thermostatic probe connected to the stove's control panel opens and closes an additonal vent on the back of the stove when it needs more air. This increases the flow of air through the heat exchanger, and increases the room temperature output, helping the stove to achieve its maximum efficiency. The models of the 'Elegance B' have four water ports (2 flow and 2 return) on the rear of the stove. These can be shut off if only one water heating circuit is needed. If properly plumbed these stoves are able to heat up to 10 radiators in average size and the domestic hot-water system. We offer a wide range of wood burning stoves with back boilers from some of the top UK manufacturers. We also have a broad range of boiler stoves, thermal stores and pumps for these models. Installation There are several ways to connect a stove boiler to your central heating system. You can link it to a combi boiler by using a special adaptor, or add a thermal store that will allow the wood-burning stove to supply your hot water system directly (this requires a separate cylinder in the loft for the header tank). It is also possible to make it priority for the hot water by connecting the radiator loop and heat loss radiators to the stove through injector tees and feeding the hot water system from this. Another alternative is to use a thermopile thermostat to regulate the pump in the radiator loop, so that the system only runs when the stove has heated the hot water tank and the heater is turned off. It is possible to connect an existing wood stove with back boiler to an existing heating system. It depends on the system and plumbing layout, but the majority of modern open vented systems can be linking a boiler stove with very little upheaval or cost. It is a good idea to consult a HETAS qualified person or a local plumber installer who is experienced with wet systems prior to putting in a multifuel stove with back boiler. A typical system will comprise a thermal store, a hot water accumulator tank, and a wood burning with a back boiler installed inside the firebox. The back boiler water ports are used to connect the stove to the system. These ports are 1 inch BSP and can be easily adapted to the size of 22mm or 28mm pipes using compression fittings. The thermal store is a huge tank that can store lots of heat. It is connected to the stove and radiators by a system of pipes and tees. The thermostatic switch regulates the radiator loop that only activates the heating once the water temperature in the system is 55 degrees C. The CSB multi-fuel wood burner with back boiler is a well-loved option. It is a powerful stove that can power up to 10 radiators in your home. It is able to burn logs, peat, coal and smokeless fuel. The CSB can also be used as an additional heating source such as a biomass pellet boiler or log gasifier.
