  1. Hi all 👋, first post on here but probably one of many, I'm currently looking into the heating system I am going to install on my widebeam i was hoping you could take a look and tell me what you think and if it all looks ok. (Heating sorce: Solid fuel fire and diesel water heater Heating up - radiators, under floor heating and hot water) I am thinking of installing the bubble b1c1 corner stove with back boiler, also what are peoples thoughts on the Prity AM 12 ( https://fireplacesforhome.com/Wood-Burning-Stove-Corner-Model-Fireplace-Log-Burner-Solid-Fuel-Prity-AM-12kw ) multifuel stove? And also a webasto diesel water heater. All my heating appliances are going to run to the NRG zone 5 manifold wich does allow thermosyphon , I plan to have 4x radiators, underfloor heating and calorifier attached. The diagram is missing the PRV and the pipes from the back boiler to the heating manifold will be in 28mm. My biggest worry is the thermosyphon safety as it is going to run to the heating manifold so i dont have any heat leak. Any input would be appreciated. Kind regards Brad I've linked the NRG zone let me know what you think to using this as I can't see any post speaking about this or any manifold. https://www.nrgawareness.com/product/nrg-zone-4-5-6-32-32-28/
  2. I am not very familiar with back boilers and was wondering what this is all about. The stove runs two rads and a cauliflower on a gravity system.
  3. hey all, we have a constant kettling going on with our back boiler and have decided that with a 2 yr old on board we arent gonna mess around risking it going bang. i would like to remove the back boiler and re-plum the pipes back into its old circuit. does anyone have any advice on which replacement parts id need to buy to return the burner to its original condition? baffle, back plate? thanks in adnvanced all :D
  4. Hi All, We have a Morso Squirrel stove with a back boiler. We are having a few issues getting hot water out of it. Sometimes the stove will have only been on for an hour, and we get hot water, other times it will be on for hours (and hot) but no hot water. We have tried changing the temperature settings for when the pump will kick in, tried high and lower, but can't seem to figure it out. Does anyone know much about them who could advise us? I'm a bit fed up of having cold showers now. We also have a calorifer but even with the engine running this drains too much power. Thanks
  5. I have a Surecal dual coil calorifer with one coil connected to my engine, and the other blanked off. I also have two radiators connected to the back boiler of my coalbrookdale duel fuel stove - this is gravity fed. My question is whether to use the spare coil and hook it up to the boiler feed, and if so how. I suspect gravity won't work its magic throug the calorifier... ...so I envisage taking a loop from the hot side of the last radiator through a pump through the calorifier and back to the cold side of the last radiator. Has anyone done anything like this - if so, what and how? Anyone got any comments on my scheme or better ideas? I don't mind the last radiator losing some heat when the pump is running, and I'll only run it when I want to heat up the calorifier anyway. But might there be any issues with the boiler when a pump is attached, as obviously this will increase the flow? Thanks, Mark
  6. Fairly simple - Lutine's solid fuel stove works well but the pump for the central heating does not, given the creaking electrics it might be the thermostat, it might be the pump, it might be the wiring, this will take a little time to resolve. Simple question, as I'll have to drain much of the central heating to replace the pump (it's at the lowest point on the system) can I disconnect the plumbing and use the stove with no heating attached, or will running with a dry boiler damage it? I'm not living on board at present so no heating is not the end of the world but having it help keeps the boat dry.
  7. Hello, About to have a chili-penguin stove delivered with a 8000BTU (1.3KWH) boiler which slots in at the back. Was going to use a non-pressured system, but as my calorifier is level with the stove (about 8 metres away) I wont be able to take advantage of gravity circulation. So I was going to buy a small pump, 12v, something like this: http://www.elyboatchandlers.com/12v-central-heating-pumps/jabsco-12v-circulation-pump Is this strictly speaking ok? My concern is, if the pump were to fail while the fire was in full swing then many bad things could happen which I wont list here. Am I better off scraping my back boiler project on the basis that I cannot rely on gravity given the configuration of the stove and tank? Thanks
  8. Hi I have a Morso 1430 + thermostat + waterpump + 3 radiators + header tank set up on my 65 ft narrowboat, and in the last 3 weeks i was having issues with it. It feels like that it keeps loosing water and no amount of bleeding can sort it out. It works for 2-3 days after bleeding it, then it starts to play up again, making the pump struggle slightly, sloshing noises in the radiator, banging noise in the pipes. I looked around and fixed one minor leak at radiator tap but the problem still persists. Has anyone got an idea how to fix it? Many thanks Zsolt
  9. Hi I am new to narrow boats. I have just bought and moved into mine which has a squirrel morso. It is a bit rusty with worst corrosion where flu joins top of stove from water coming in from corrosion of the plate where you attach chimney . I started cleaning back rust today and have some questions: The collar has split where flu meets fire. I guess this needs replacing? There is also a thin crack on the top right hand edge of the stove at back which I have just noticed. Do I need to replace the top plate? The stove has a back boiler and there is an arm (sorry I don't know the right terminology) which leads to a hole about 1.5 inch diameter. The metal cover is not attached so you can move the arm and expose the hole. Is this normal or should it be sealed with fire cement. Sorry if these are stupid questions. I am also thinking of taking of back boiler as having pump on is annoying and stove heat would be enough with ecofan. I also want to install an instant water heater as a back up. Any thoughts on this plan also welcome. Thank you, Katherine
