Hello folks, just querying if two solid fuel back boiler stoves can be connected to a twin coil cylinder, there is also a condenser oil boiler connected at present along with one solid fuel stove with back boiler, your knowledge be appreciated, thanks in advance.
 
if careful and done properly, but I just wonder how much heat input you really need?
 
Anything can be done, as long as its done correctly and more importantly safely.
 
i would connect it all too a thermal store but again there is no problem doing it with a standard triple coil cylinder with the correct controls
are you a plumber>>
 
seen on previous posts you want better water pressure go with a thermal store, vented heating and mains pressure hot water
 
Yes it's simple get a tank in tank open vent or a tank in tank. Unvented with a stove quench. Use tank in tank as a LLH on bbu. U will need to set it for grav with anti circs on vertical returns and pumps on injector tees but you need a pro in.
 
Need doing by a competent person to ensure its safe. Controls must meet part l etc......
 
Dunsley Neutraliser will do as the neutral point - it just requires to be ordered with extra two tappings.
I have installed a system many years ago with 3 boilers connected to a Dunsley (Baker) unit. It is an oil boiler (pumped to it) & 2 soilid fuel open fires back boilers connected with 28mm gravity primaries. Still working to this day, but excess heat loss if the pump fails leaving neutraliser would be something that needs sorted.

Many ways to cut this cake, either Thermal store, LLH, Neutraliser (basically a LLH anyway) or a packaged solution like the Hx Panels from Heating Innovations or the Heat Genie from Systemlink.

The solution you chose should be the one that best fits the needs of the system, and that will require knowledge and a bit of experience. Best to a Competent Persons Scheme registered engineer in (HETAS, APHC etc).

SimonG has fitting these before: Heating Innovations homepage and Ermi is your other man for the job,
Just my humble.
I'd use either of these two chaps.
