Hello there, I would just like to check with you all how this system i've planned sounds, as I'm concerned whether i've got too much KW power behind it. Although i've called it a cabin, we are actually living in it a year round. Two adults, a child and a baby.
We are in a three room cabin with a porch and shower room in the main room. The whole cabin is insulated with 60mm celotex.
Bedroom 1 - 9 m3
Main Room - 30 m3
Bedroom 2 - 25 m3
Porch - 2 m3
Toliet - 4 m3
Bedroom 1 adjoins the main room with a large open door way so has no heating equipment.
The Main Room will have a 12kw Woodburner with Oven and Backboiler.* which will gravity feed to a 120L Twin coil cylinder.
*Woodburner
Max space output 5kw
Nom. space output 4kw
Max Water output 7kw
Nom. Water Output 5kw
The Cylinder will also be connected to a 15tube hot water solar panel. It will feed two hot taps and a shower used by three people daily.
The Shower Room will have a 1kw Heat sink Radiator.
Bedroom 2 will have a 2kw Radiator
so to recap...
70 m3 Cabin
5Kw Max space output
7Kw Max Water Output
15 tube Solar Panel
120 Liter Cylinder
1Kw Heat Leak
2 Kw Radiator
Is the water in the cylinder going to boil really easily? I've estimated we'd use a whole cylinder worth of water a day.
Thank you,[/b]
