No problem - if you need to chat about the project then feel free...

Thanks Adrian. It is possible the project may simplify to replacing the
DHW cylinder with a twin coil one and only using the wood burner to heat
the water via the second coil. This still gives rise to some questions:
Would a heat dump radiator be required or advised? Would a simple
gravity system work OK? Should I have a separate header tank or could
the existing one for the oil fired system be used? What are the
considerations when selecting a twin coil cylinder?
