Pressurised DHW system

[Stuthehandyman]

I'm building a 4-bed house that is going to have underfloor heating on the ground floor, radiators on the first floor and a pressurised DHW system.

I would also like to use two sources of heat, a gas boiler and a wood burning stove connected to two indirect coils in an unvented cylinder but I was concerned as to how I was going to make the wood burning stove circuit fail safe.

I think my investigations today have revealed that I'm not allowed to connect a solid fuel stove to an unvented cylinder and therefore I'm starting to look at thermal stores (e.g. Gledhill BoilerMate OV) instead.

I think these can be connected to a solid fuel stove because they have an open vent but apparently they also provide a pressurised DHW system.

Please can anyone confirm this?

A boilermate, god help you if you fit one, will give DHW at cold mains pressure as the HW is not stored, but heated as in a combi boiler style.

The 'cylinder' is just a store of pre-heated water for the system to send where it is needed.

now now g4y nothing wrong with boilermates WHEN INSTALLED CORRECTLY and treated accordingly,much better option than unvented in my opinion.
