    Well a BASIC layout is this most circulates push the water through the boiler but a times they are on the other end sucking out of the boiler. What controls are on the wood burning boiler? What do the manufacture spec. Say on its pressure to operate. Does have a pressure relief valve? What's the expansion tank require? You NEED to give a lot of more detailed informant ion for anyone to help steer you in the right direction. I could say go from the circulate to wood boiler to boiler and boom old 20 year boiler pops pressure relief valve etc etc. see the danger hear. Need spec. please. P.S. You need a separate chimmney to burn "fossile Fuel" a clean out etc
