Folks,
I plan on installing a stove for space heating in room in which it is placed & possibly to contribute to DHW. I spoke to a stove supplier at the weekend however who suggested that the distance between the proposed stove location and cylinder is too great (approx. 50ft) to adequately provide hot water. He suggested that too much heat may be lost due to the length of the pipe-run. I'd appreciate any other opinions from posters regarding this issue? If the general concensus is that 50ft is too long, then I'll install a stove for space heating only.
Thanks in advance, apple1
