How do I install an outdoor wood burning boiler with my existing oil boiler?

Jul 11, 2008 by sourdoughjack56 | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs

What I specifically exigency to know is how do I keep the oil boiler's burner from firing when there is a call for zealousness. It will take a few seconds for the water in the oil boiler to get hot from the water circulating through the enthusiasm exhanger from the outdoor boiler. I was wondering if I could use a strap on aquastat on the arriving hot line from the outdoor boiler and connect it somehow to my oil boilers pre-eminent control box and then set the aquastat not to close unless the wet temperature fell below a set temp.?

Can a wood burning boiler reduce carbon emission, if so where can you source a boiler?

I do not see how they can limit emissions even when fitted with a filter on the flue.
Can it be a clever thing to use wood that takes many years to grow and is under resourced?

In terms of efficeincy Wood burning boilers are not a ample role model and they would probably be hard pushed to stimulate an average house and the hot water at the same time when
there is a tip demand. You would probably be better with a combination fuel boiler

Would I desperate straits to add an expansion tank or would the combi boiler withstand with its own expansion tank?

One way is to use a Dunsley Neutralizer.

Can I use the chimney liner from my old gas boiler to connect a wood burning stove to?

Is the chimney liner that was on my old gas boiler ok to tie a wood burning stove to or do I need to get a new flue. It is a steel concetina strain flue liner.

You cannot use the flue from your gas boiler because the wood burner is a greater fever than the gas boiler. The flue for a gas boiler actually is not all that hot. Your woodburner should industry quite well without any flue. To remove the old flue, which is sound. you will have to pull it from the chimney by getting on the roof to disavow it. A woodburner will cause a lot of wood ash in the chimney and may want many cleaning.
