built 1 5xs that size. almost done i should say. put 16ft radiators in the hall of my house. no electricity anywhere
I built this system in 1981 from an article in the Mother Earth News http://www.motherearthnews.com/diy/wood-stove-water-heater-zmaz76ndztak.aspx
I had to use a heavy duty pressure relief on the output of the coil and a directional check valve on the input of the coil it worked better then.
Oh… I’m sure the dip tubes can handle those temps! Lmfao! Enjoy drinking the toxic dip tubes!
