After a couple of minor issues which having communicated with Klover were sorted, the bifire got to work. I use it mainly for wood as my job gives me free wood. I use the pellet side just for
the morning. When I get up and fill the wood side the pellet side just gives way to the wood side. The wood side for me has the greater power. I can achieve high in the 70 degrees for water temperature, if I open the vents. The pellet side struggles to get to 65 degrees. It heats well my 11 radiators but of course you have to keep chucking the wood on. Its good for your fitness! If your lazy there is always the pellets! For the hot water I have my fire linked to a special hot water heater. When the water in the bifire is hot(above 60 degrees) it is available for use as domestic hot water. The hot water from the bifire passes through the electric heater and if its hot (over the temperature set in the electric heater) then the electric heater has no need to kick in. I managed a bath and a shower the other day completely free. Love it! Recommend it if you have more wood than you can cope with....
