05. SYSTEM LAYOUT
FUNDAMENTAL REQUIREMENTS
System designers and installers should use their experience, comply with all standards and best practice, and
must ensure that the following fundamental requirements are met:
1. The solid fuel circuit should be “open vented” and fitted with a suitable expansion tank and vent pipe.
2. A permanent heat load, capable of operating in the event of power failure, should be available to dissipate
heat from the solid fuel system and prevent “pitching” to the expansion tank. The EasyStove Heat Dissipa-
tion kit is a good solution for safe heat dissipation.
3. A suitable and approved blending valve must be fitted to the domestic hot water supply to ensure that the
possibility of excessively hot water being delivered to water outlets is eliminated. Hot water may become very
hot when heated by solid fuel. If this is delivered to water outlets, it may cause scalds and burns.
SUGGESTED SYSTEM LAYOUT
The scheme below will suit many systems. It takes account of the fundamental requirements outlined above.
Some stoves and boilers will have a heat dissipation facility but if this is not present, the EasyStove heat dis-
sipation kit should be installed as shown. The heat dissipation kit should be installed on the feed and expan-
sion pipes as indicated. Dimension L should not be less than 500mm and the heat dissipation kit should be
at least 800mm below the expansion tank.
