I have a geothermal water to air system along with a wood stove in the house and a Hotblast wood furnace in the garage. Has anyone integrated DHW heating into their Hotblast? I get free hot water in the summer off the geothermal unit, but I have been thinking of a way to integrate DHW in the winter via the Hotblast or possibly running through a heat exchanger to heat my geothermal buffer tank. I can heat the house via geothermal water to air with 110 degree water and my buffer tank cannot exceed 150 degrees. I thought about using solenoid valves and setting the hot water heater to priority and then the buffer tank as secondary. The problem is getting the stove to heat the water.
i've seen these, but don't see any reviews from people.
Hot Rod Water Probe for Wood Burning Furnaces
Are there any indoor wood furnaces that have DHW already integrated?
