Hello All -
First post here. I read some great posts from 6 years ago on this topic, and I'm hoping for some advice!
I'm wanting to build a woodfired sauna that has radiant floor heating that uses the woodstove to heat the water into the floor. What i've read is that there needs to be a collection tank for the hot water, situated above the height of the stove. I'm trying to figure out how it would work to have the hot pipes coming directly out of the open top water tank that is connected to the side of the stove. from there I envision the hot pipes going down into the floor, heating the floor, then returning up to the water tank on the side of the stove. As I learn about how this works, I don't think the hot going down and the cold going up works...seems 180 degrees opposite what it needs to be. hot going up, cold going down. How could I work this out? If anyone can draw a diagram I'd be eternally grateful! I'm a visual learner...
Thanks!
