That depends on the size of the heat bank, the temperature of the water therein and the number of radiators you intend to feed, however, I reckon if you put a few logs in the burner before you retire for the evening you should be OK for a bit of heating and hot water in the morning, but  not much more than that.

Just back from the "heel" and been to see about the insulated plaster board-unbelievable as it may seem it is still cheaper to buy kingspan K17 board in Holland and ship it out at a cost of over 1000 euros.I can't believe it really. The Italian stuff (made by gyproc) is of lesser quality and more expensive. Anybody fancy ordering up a load too and reduce the delivery charge!
