OK Heres what I am thinking any ideas or help would be helpful before it is fully installed and would be apreciated
Here is what I have waterford 103 woodstove
18†long 3†wide h2o loop for in the fire box
18x20†heat coil , Hvac blower 30gal hw tank (storage if needed)
B&G circulator pump, 110v thermostat
I want to put loop into firebox through chimney out the clean out (to avoid drilling into firebox for the water loop) the chimney will be sealed and I will be able to disconect and remove the water loop in 2 minutes to clean loop and chimney (easy hookup) the loop would be right above the baffle inside the box. then I want it to go to the HW tank for storage. Then to the circulator from the circulator to the heat coil back to water loop.
I would encase the heat coil with the hvac blower to the exsisting ducts inside the house with a new cold air return (systm in house now is not correct according to hvac tech) need to correct circulationThe blower would be on the thermostat and the circ pump woud be constant on . circulating the water/glycol
There is another thermostat to shut the entire system down if water temp is too low for heating
(Then house would use gas heater to heat)
Does this sound right?
I do have a little knowledge of heat sysems ( a little knowledge may be a bad thing lol)
Ps . my stove is in a enclosed addition on the house. The system will be only 10 to 15 feet away from the duct work in the house
