Home heating system

[skyhuck]

I take it that is that renewable heat incentive Dave or RHI ?

 

Thats the one

[Jesse]

Anyone had experience of this type of system ?

 

Log boiler running under floor heating and hot water via accumulator tank with solar panel to pre heat accumulator tank water for the gas boiler to finish off in summer

 

Is there a better system ?

 

Only fault I can see is accumulator needs to be a lot bigger

 

Accumulator hot water tanks - heat stores UK

Good post, i'm just doing two one bed units , conversion of my barn and was going to just run the water and heating of a stove in each unit, i'm now thinking of solar for hot water back up and electricity and still keep the stoves, it will be interesting to see how much input this thread generates.

careful thought required if sharing heating system as regards location to 3 properties as you want to keep distribution runs short for efficiency and cost reasons.

Hi Jesse

 

as mentioned earlier - Navitron forum and Green Building forum are the places to be for this sort of subject. Not to knock this forum, but these issues are what they specialise in.
