<p>Hi, I replied on the other thread, but I've just seen this. I think that now you have a 75 degree stat in the load charger, it's less important to worry about the temperature in the load loop / boiler, as long as it isn't too big a volume - because the temp in the thermal store shouldn't drop below the laddomat stat temperature . I'd set the flue stat quite low so that the load loop / boiler doesn't boil. Play around with the flue stat temperatures and see what works. As per my comment in the other thread, if the load loop has been plumbed in properly, it should run on gravity even without the pump running, and so shouldn't boil. Best wishes, Geoff</p>

<p>Hi, sorry for the delay, I didn't realise I had a new pm.</p>

<p>As for wood, I burn anything and everything as long as its dry. I actually prefer a mix to be honest, starting off with larch or other softwood to get the firebox up to temperature and then switch to hardwood to save having to refuel as often. I don't keep the fire in overnight, as I don't like shutting all the vents down due to risk of tarring the flue, so maintaining an ember bed isn't quite as important. Hope you get sorted, but feel free to pm if you think there is anything else I could help with. Geoff</p>
