hi I've bought a Rayburn no2 and I want to run 5ish radiators off it, I don't want domestic hot water, I don't want a big copper tank, is it possible to run the radiators with no tank? I want most radiators on thermostatic valves, does anybody have any diagrams ect? I have heard it's possible but you need a heat sink radiator?

Any advice would be appreciated, thanks,

Chris
 
I had to Google. That's a wood stove? With 'optional boiler'? The blurb I found said it would make 9000 btu with 24 hours of continuous burning - that's not very much heat for 24 hours of burning. I wouldn't be very hopeful of it doing what you are wanting it to do if you are thinking of 5 rads. Not sure what the copper tank is you're speaking of.

Hi. No it's not s wood stove, it's a multi fuel cooking range with standard boiler, a bit like an AGA cooker
 
OK, I said stove, but should have said range. I only know what Google returned to me - which leads me to think you won't get much heat out of it to use with rads.
