Heating circuit collecting heat from fireplace

[Unregistered]

Hi guys,

I live in Spain, have a small central.heating circuit but also a fireplace. I wanted to add a heat exchanger in behind the firrplace insert to distribute some of the fireplace heat around.

My question is, when I have the boiler on I know the pump is circulating and there's a pressure relief valve. But say I wanted to circulate water with the boiler off, I know I can add a pump to the circuit no probs, but im thinking about the high pressure protection, can I add a pressure relief valve to the circuit with the pump and that be all I need?

Many thanks

Leo

All i know is you had better increase your buildings insurance cover or get in someone who understands that heat and water make steam, which can and will go pop.
