Started the log splitter build

go through what ive said the diverter valve is before the cylinder tank and is only used to keep the heat away from the tank from the gas boiler so it dosnt heat up the tank

if it fails all it will do is heat up the hot water cylinder

that system is sealed

the boilers prv valve wouldnt be bothered as the heat from the cylinders heat exchanger wouldnt heat the water as high as normal output would do

only a 24hrs a day wood stove burning would that heat get anywhere near where the prv valve would need to blow off some pressure

the wood stove would need an hr to warm all of that tank water before it got to the heat exchanger and then the 3hrs to get it to rad over heated

I understand what you put, and the thermodynamic principles of steam generation and the energy developed, if you wanted to get technical we can discuss the whys and wherefores of both enthalpy and entropy. But as this is a welding forum, I doubt many would care.
My system is designed to run 24 hrs a day on boiler, log burner, and solar input, with out the need to worry about whats working and whats not. There are enough layers of protection to cover any failures should they occur.

Cart is a sore point atm due to no playing time available to progress..been thinking of scraping the project tbh and calling it good
