Wood Pellet Boilers... Saving You Money.
Heating your home sustainably is not just better for the environment, it can save you as much as 60% on your heating bills. That's because wood pellets cost much less than oil and propane. Heating with wood pellets is no longer just a stove thing. Central heating with wood pellets is in one million homes in Europe, and is growing here in North America.
The EcoBoiler is an American-made, ASME-certified wood pellet boiler. A single EcoBoiler is sized for heating most residential or small commercial spaces.
Our pellet burner is a solidly built, Swedish-made burner automatic ignition and advanced controls. This burner has been adapted and safety-tested for the North American market. Thousands of these burners are already in service in Europe, including near the Arctic Circle where the winters are long and frigid. Your installer can set it to meet heat loads up to 65,000 BTU/hr (output), which is enough to heat most homes. A home heating with 1,200 gallons of heating oil, for example, has an average heat load of about 32,000 BTU/hr in January, or about half of the output of this burner.
The third key component in the bundle is one of our pellet storage bins. We stock two popular sizes (10.6 ft³ and 25.8 ft³, 1 bag = 1ft3), the larger bin gives you the capability to reload fuel as infrequently as every other week during the heating season. Quality indoor and outdoor storage units that are suitable for bulk delivery are also available.
The fourth component in the suite is the pellet auger, which connects the storage bin to the boiler. It's controlled by the burner controller, and feeds pellets to the burner in controlled doses while the burner is operating.
Whether your home is heated with a boiler or a forced air furnace, an EcoBoiler can be fitted as a replacement. Alternatively, you can leave your current boiler (or furnace) as a back-up heat source. Either way, you'll save money on fuel while doing a good turn for the environment and your region's economy, which is where your heating dollars will stay.

"Wood pellets typically cost 40 to 60% less than oil and propane. Manufactured across North America, supplies are plentiful. Wood pellets can be purchased from pellet retailers on the Internet, from home centers and even many garden centers. Because pellets are manufactured to specifications that require adherence to close tolerances, wood pellets are a reliable, predictable, and safe fuel to use."
