Abstract
A heating system comprises an oven located above a solid fuel stove, a chimney for receiving combustion gases from the solid fuel stove, and a heat exchanger in the chimney for transferring heat from the combustion gases to a flow of water. A heat exchange passage adjacent a water tank receives combustion gases from the stove and transfers heat from the combustion gases to water in the water tank. A damper is adjustable for controlling the flow of the combustion gases to the chimney and to the heat exchange passage.
