I also heat water with my stove. 2 hot water tanks, the first tank is unpowered has cold city water coming into it and is ran through a coil on my wood stove and then cycles back into the tank with a hot water pump. The second tank is powered and draws from the first tank. So cold city water is heated prior to going to my second tank it saves me lots of power each year.
