I have a radiant floor system that was not engineered very well (NTRob might remember (by the way I will get back to you about some things we discussed)).. I am planning on doing a few design changes that will make it more efficient. I am also considering using a wood burner as a fireplace in stead of a vent free gas unit. I was wondering if there are any commercial products available to utilize the heat produced to directly suppliment my current boiler. I have also been searching for a waste vegetable oil fired boiler. I'm not sure hovever how much smell these make. I have seen a few that claim to emit low or no odors. I have access to waste fryer oil for free.
