Let’s take a look at an investment in a low-carbon power or heat source for your home or business. Both biomass thermal (e.g. wood pellets) and solar PV (photo voltaic) can be looked at as investments, like an investment in stocks, bonds and real estate, only closer to home (literally) and with direct benefits […]
There have been recent discussions within the “modern wood heat” industry about the advantages of referring to boiler output in kW as opposed to the traditional BTU/hour.

The world of central heating is evolving. Changes include more buildings being heated with a wood pellet boiler. For many families, businesses and schools, crossing the bridge to these modern heat sources has become an easy choice.
The advanced design and technology in today’s pellet boilers makes these systems much cleaner and more efficient than […]
