Hi all,
I am looking for some advice, positive or negative.
We have moved into an ex local authority 3 bed semi in North Yorkshire, double glazed, cavity wall and loft insulation all in place thanks to previous owners. The CH system has been running off an old coal fired Grant back boiler, which has now been retired. So at present no CH system. We have been looking at a number of options, but really want some non 'I will try to sell you this system' advice.
Thermal stores - are they worth the extra outlay over a std vented system and associated tank?
We have been quoted, as an requested option, to fit a 500ltr thermal store running from a 8-15kw (3-5 to room) stove that in theory would supply all CH ( 4 big rads, 3 smaller and a heat dump in the bathroom) and HW. I have read that in some cases people are strugling to meet HW requirements. Does anyone have one installed on a wood burning boiler and how have you found it?
Many thanks for reading
Matt and Rosie
