Hi
We have a multi-fuel stove installed in our house, fitted with a back boiler to heat the rads and hot water. The system worked fab for us last winter burning all the off-cuts from the building of the house. Unfortunately however we have all but used up the off-cuts and will have to start paying for fuel again!
We found the wood worked very well, with a good flame heating the back boiler and hence the rads in the house. We used coal occassionally but didn't find it as good at heating the backboiler, although we didn't play around with the settings that much.
Just wondering what peoples experiences have been with different fuels (solid wood / coal / eco-logs) with solid fuel stoves? We are using a Hunter Herald 14 if that helps.
