A heat accumulator (heat storage or buffer tank) is designed to accumulate thermal energy when there is a surplus of it in the heating system, as well as to release this heat when there is a shortage of it, i.e. when the heating unit is not in operation. This device also enables a solid fuel boiler to be operated safely, preventing the system from boiling over and thereby avoiding boiler explosion. Efficient operation of a solid fuel boiler without a heat storage tank is IMPOSSIBLE!! The efficiency of the boiler is dramatically reduced without using a tank; the heat literally goes down the tube. And no valves or combustion controls can help you achieve efficient combustion without a tank! And last but not least, if you want to store heat at night and use it during the day, that is also a task that can be solved with a heat accumulator!!
Heat sources for heat accumulators may be the following:
The heat accumulator can additionally provide your home with hot water (models with a coil)
