Hello everyone,
I am currently planning the heating system for our new single-family house. I will install a gas condensing boiler, solar panels on the roof, and a fireplace with a heat exchanger in the living room. So far so good. Now the question arises, what kind of buffer tank should I put in the basement??
I visited 3 heating engineers and heard 3 different opinions.
1.) A 1000L combi tank will be installed in the basement. All 3 heat suppliers feed their heat into different layers. The domestic hot water is circulated through the tank in a stainless steel corrugated pipe and heated on demand via the heat exchanger principle.
2.) Also a combi tank, but 800L. However, the hot water is in a water bladder located in the upper part of the tank.
3.) The fireplace and solar fill a 300-400L tank for domestic hot water. The heating water is heated by the boiler when needed.
Which option is the most sensible?
For your information, we have underfloor heating and radiators combined in the house.
Regards
Marlon
