Howdy,
I have a triplecoil cylinder that has a gravity circuit and a pumped circuit from a solid fuel stove, both of which are working nicely and well thanks to advice in a previoius post.
The third coil at the bottom is for solar, which is sitting doing nothing as solar panel = money, which I have little of.
Would it be possible/advisable to reroute the DHW circuit to go into the cylinder, back out and then into the solar coil and back out.
While the stove is getting the cylinder upto nearly 80degrees, I doubt it is heating much more than 65% (guess) of the cylinder volume (copy of cylinder spec is hard to read for coil ratings).
Would I be able to heat the water quicker?
