Multifuel Stove With Back Boiler

A multifuel stove can heat radiators and provide hot water for your home. This can reduce heating costs.

Adding a wood burning stove with a built-in back boiler to an existing central heating system is straightforward and can be done by a competent plumbing engineer. This article will show you how.

Features

When a stove has a boiler, the heat produced from burning wood or other fuel is used to heat hot water in a cylinder as well as to heat the space. A boiler stove can heat radiators in the home. We have a large selection of multifuel stoves with back boilers. All come with a full manufacturer warranty.

A typical wood burner puts out energy in a single direction as it moves from the firebox to 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 into the room, and less heat is wasted through the outlet of a flue.

By running a pipe, you can transfer the heat produced by a multifuel woodburning fire place with a boiler to another room. This could be used to heat a hot-water cylinder, radiators or even a nonpressurised shower. Typically a thermostat would be installed to monitor the temperature of the hot water tank and turn on the radiators' pumps when this level is reached. This will stop the hot water tank from running out and ensure that there is an unending supply of hot water for domestic use.

The CSB multifuel stove that has a back boiler has a powerful output of 21, 000 watts and can be used to heat a entire home with the help of central heating system or even a domestic water cylinder. The CSB is a very versatile stove that burns all types of wood logs, coal, anthracite, briquettes and smokeless fuel. It can be used as a stand-alone wood burner heated by the thermosyphon. The CSB is compatible with both open and closed systems of central heating (not compatible with pressured systems). A CSB is typically supplied with the thermal store made of stainless steel or neutraliser tank.

Fuel type

The main difference between a multi-fuel stove and the boiler stove is that the latter comes with an inbuilt water tank which can heat the hot water in your home and even radiators. This feature makes boiler stoves a popular choice for environmentally-conscious homeowners who want to reduce their reliance on gas, oil or electricity.

The main kind of multifuel stove with back boiler is the wraparound stove, which has a water tank that runs across the sides and back of the firebox. This means that the boiler portion of the stove effectively hugs the firebox, thereby maximising heating efficiency and power output. Wraparound boiler stoves are available from a range of top manufacturers, including Stratford and Hunter Stoves.

Another option is the clip-in stove, which comes with a water tank which replaces the firebricks located at the rear of the stove's firebox. These types of stoves aren't able of producing large amounts of hot water, since the boiler tank has a much smaller surface area than an all-round boiler stove.

There are a variety of ways you can fit multifuel stoves with a back boiler to your system The most popular is by plumbing it as a radiator inside the vented central heating system. The boiler stove could be utilized as an additional heating source by turning it on when the gas central heating is switched on.

Installing a wood-burning stove that has a boiler back is also possible by connecting it to a multi coil hot water tank or heat accumulator. In this scenario, your stove will heat your hot water tank before transferring it to your radiators using the thermostatic valve. This setup is more complicated and should only be performed by a trained heating technician.

When a multifuel stove with a back burner is fitted incorrectly, it can be dangerous. This is because, when the stove is in use, the water inside the boiler turns into steam, which could cause the system to explode if it's not properly vented.

Fuel supply

The heat produced by the stove's combustion is transferred to a water tank via a boiler unit built into the back of the stove. This lets you harness the heat and then use it to heat your home, reducing your energy bills and carbon footprints. It also makes the stove more efficient because it stops heat from going up the chimney. The system is generally called a wetback wood burning stove or a back boiler stove.

Modern multifuel stoves that are aesthetically pleasing and have back boilers that are equipped with a hot water cylinder that is pre-installed. This allows you to connect the stove to your domestic hot water system and make use of it to heat your radiators and taps around the house. Some older boiler stoves come with an additional hot-water cylinder or the boiler could be installed in a removable box that can be placed on top of the fire chamber.

This model has a massive firebox, a large ceramic window and an "advanced air wash system" to ensure an unobstructed view. This large stove has both top and bottom air vents (Primary & Secondary) to permit easy but efficient control of the burn rate and output. The chrome door handle and air control give the stove a fashionable appearance.

A thermostatic probe connected to the stove opens and closes an additional vent located at the rear of the stove when it needs more air. This increases air flow through the heat exchanger which increases the output of a room temperature.

The 'Elegance B' models come with 4 water ports (2 kw multi fuel stove flow and 2 x return) on the rear of the stove. These can be closed off when only one water heating circuit is required. If plumbed correctly these stoves are able to heat up to 10 radiators of average size as well as the domestic hot-water system.

We offer a broad selection of wood burning stoves with back boilers from some of the top UK manufacturers. We also have a wide variety of parts for boiler stoves, thermal stores, pumps and spares for these models, and we are able to assist with any inquiries.

Installation

There are many ways to connect a boiler stove to your central heating system. You can connect it to a combi-boiler by using a specific adaptor or you can install a thermal storage to allow your wood-burning stove to feed the hot water system on its own (this requires an additional header tank to be installed in the loft). You can also give preference to hot water by connecting loops of radiators and heat loss radiators via injector tees that connect to the stove and feeding the system from there. A thermopile thermostat can be used to control the pump within the loop for the radiator. This will ensure that the system runs only after the stove has heated the hot water tank.

It is possible to connect a wood stove that has back boiler to an existing heating system. It's dependent on the system and plumbing layout but most modern open vented systems can be connecting to a boiler stove very little upheaval or cost. It is a good idea to consult an HETAS certified person or a local plumber installer who is knowledgeable about wet systems prior to installing a multifuel stove that has a back boiler.

A typical system will involve a thermal store and hot water accumulator tank, and Multifuel Stove With Back Boiler a wood burning with back boiler fitted inside the firebox. The stove is connected to the system through one of back boiler water ports that are designed to be 1 inch in size BSP (British Standard Pipe) and are easily converted to the size of 22mm or 28mm pipes by using compression fittings available from most reputable plumbing merchants.

The thermal store is a huge tank, it can hold a considerable amount of heat. It is also connected to the radiators as well as the stove by a network of pipes and tees. The radiator loop is controlled by a thermostatic switch, which only allows heating to start once the temperature of the hot water within the system has reached 55 deg C.

The CSB multi-fuel wood burner that comes with back boiler is a very popular choice. It is a powerful stove that can provide power to up to 10 radiators within your home. It is able to burn a broad variety of fuels, including coal, logs peat, smokeless fuel and peat. The CSB can also be used with a supplementary heat source like a log gasifier or biomass pellet boiler.
