We're selling our current house to a builder, who will knock it down...

Our new (to us) house was built in '94, hydronic baseboard heat by natural gas. 4 zones in the house, plus a separate gas fired hot water heater.

We have a relatively new SuperStor in our current house that we can remove and take with us...

I have a couple of options:
  • Install the SuperStor in line with the existing water heater, and preheat the DHW with a couple of solar panels? There's a nearby porch roof that faces in the right direction...
  • Put another zone on the NG boiler, remove the existing NG water heater and use the SuperStor as an indirect HW heater. (I've heard that this may be more efficient than the direct fire...but am not sure...)
Would appreciate some input!

Thanks!
