If you are just using a coil in your stove, They are not made to heat your boiler water up, unless you have a LOT of coil in your stove, you probalby can't get it any warmer because of demand on your house. Maybe slow the water down a bit circulating.
Most only use the stove to heat the hot water in your hot water tank, but to heat a house, you really need a coal boiler. You need volume, it doesn't get hot enough circulating what litter amount thru the stove.
