I found a flash on how a flexible heating system can work.
It`s an pellet stove whit solar panels and a storage tank.

Much text is in Swedish but maybe someone find this interesting ?

Klick on the text

Acktanken = Storage tank
Solpaneler = Solar panels
Pannan = The boiler
Radiatorer=Radiator. i think?
Kran vatten=water for shower
 
Hansson,

Very cool - thanks for posting - a picture is worth a thousand words - a flash presentation is worthe a million words...

I am trying to do something very similar with an unpressurized storage tank using submerged coils for all heat exchanges.

I cannot figure out the "Radiator" portion of the presentation - how the four way mixing is working???
I wish they showed all circulators and check valves.

I wish my Swedish was better...

Thanks again,
Steve
