My brother-in-law and his wife are planning to retire and build a custom
home with as many energy-saving and eco-friendly features as possible.
Since they're likely to be stuck with HOA rules about exterior

Where my woodstove is a primary source of heat in my home I have the
copper line to my HW boiler coiled under the stove before going to the
boiler. Been preheating HW boiler water like this for years, and it
works.
