The LK load units consist essentially of a pump, a 3-way valve controlled by a thermostat, and a thermosyphon bypass. A flue thermostat detects when the stove is running and starts the pump in the load unit. We recommend a flue thermostat as opposed to a pipe stat because the temperature of the flue pipe is a much better indicator as to whether the stove is going or not: the water in a system can stay hot long after the stove has gone out.

While the water in the stove is below 55ºC the valve remains closed and the water is only pumped through the backboiler in the stove. This volume of water is very small and so quickly heats up. The thermostat in the unit begins to open the valve when the water reaches 55 ºC, allowing water from the stove out into the heating system. The valve is fully open at 65 ºC which means that all the water is then allowed out into the heating system.

This means that only hot water is allowed into the heating system which is especially important if you are using an accumulator tank as you only want to allow hot water into the tank, otherwise you risk cooling your tank. Whilst the water is being heated from 55ºC to 65ºC the valve is gradually opening so the flow into the system increases gradually as the temperature does - again this reduces potential cooling of the tank through mixing.

If the power fails or the pump fails then the LK load unit still allows for thermosyphoning which is very important as it means that the water in the boiler should not overheat, and your system may even continue to provide heating and hot water as long as you designed it with thermosyphoning in mind.

An LK load unit comes with 3 thermostat dials which show the temperature of the water flowing through the unit. This allows you to see that the load unit is working as it should. In many smaller installations the load unit would be hidden, but it is a good idea to incorporate an inspection hatch as part of the design so you can access, inspect and service (not that the LK unit should really need servicing).

High temperature header tanks are essential for vented boiler stove installations. These copper high temperature F&E tanks can easily take temperatures in excess of 110ºC – which standard header tanks cannot.
LK 840 3 way mixer valves
LK840 3 way valves are used, with an electronic controller, to adjust the mixed temperature going to a home's heating system, or within a boiler.
Expansion vessels for Thermal Stores
Expansion vessels allow for the expansion and contraction of water in a sealed heating system as it heats and cools. We supply larger than standard sizes which are needed to go alongside our thermal stores.
Woodfire EX inset stoves
With a high output to the central heating, but a low output to the room, the new EX models are perfect for modern houses.
Stove external air ventilation kits
A stoves which can take its air from an external air duct really makes sense in modern, well sealed houses. A flexible aluminium 100mm duct can be extended to 1.5m with a choice of external grilles. If you need a run of more than 1.5m then please contact us to order a custom external air kit.
SystemZone
The SystemZone manifold allows you to easily link multiple heat sources to your heating and hot water system. The SystemZone is more than just a box with tappings (sometimes called a low loss header); internally there are baffles which route the hot flows and the cooler returns together.
Cordivari Thermal Stores
These Cordivari thermal stores provide everything from very simple buffers for biomass and wood, to ones suitable for solar thermal, and domestic hot water production. Their removable soft insulation means that they are a bit lower in price, as well as sometimes being easier to get into tight spaces.
LK Armatur Load valves
The purpose of a load valve is to make sure that the best possible temperature stratification in the thermal store is achieved and also a high temperature which returns to the boiler stove. This means that there is an increased life of the boiler stove and greater efficiency to the heating system.
EnergyStore Bio Quattro Thermal Stores
The EnergyStore Bio Quattro thermal store is specifically designed for use with biomass and renewable heat sources and allows you to link in conventional oil or gas boilers if required. The densest insulation on the market lets you store heat for when it's needed. Solid-state by design, they are highly effective, with little to go wrong.
Overheat Safety Valve Pressurised Systems
This Overheat Safety Valve gives protection for boiler stoves installed on pressurised heating systems. If the stove overheats then mains water flushes through an internal heat exchange coil in the stove cooling it down.
