Using biomass pellets as the main heating source for many properties will rely on the abilities in addition to warmth output of biomass pellet boilers over biomass pellet stoves. Biomass pellet boilers have a greater warmth output than most pellet stoves. The pellet boiler will be connected up to your existing central heating system to distribute warmth throughout the whole property by radiators. Some consumers can also choose multi-energy biomass pellet boilers. For instance, the Tatano wood pellet boiler we use at PelHeat is also a log boiler is most wanted. Though, I can tell you from personal experience that burning logs requires a lot more maintaince than combustion pellets. Even when the burn chamber is full by way of logs, it still requires a refill every couple of hours. Even when we are burning straw pellets which require the clinker removing, the boiler will operate for over 6 hours without any maintenance. The Tatano boiler, as well as some supplementary biomass pellet boilers on the market, also has the option to set up an other gas or oil burner to the back of the boiler. The advantage by this feature is some consumers are not certain on the reliability of pellet fuel and also the supply of pellet fuel. Therefore the burner from your existing oil or gas boiler can be separated plus fitting into your new biomass pellet boiler.

From personal experience, we can say we are more than happy by way of our wood pellet boiler, along with the compensation using a wood pellet boiler has brought. First off on running costs, we have seen a huge reduction in heating costs compared to using oil. In terms of maintenance and up keep, our work load is more than most through the type of energy pellets we use. Using biomass pellet fuel, we would only have the service the boiler every couple of days, maybe once a week. However, we experiment with a mixture of pellet fuels. We at present burn mainly wheat straw pellets. Wheat grass pellet make a higher ash content than wood pellets and also sometimes generate a hard clinker formation from melting ash. Owing to this we generally service the boiler once a day, on the other hand the payback are than running costs are below half that of using wood pellet fuels. We also support the fact of using a local waste from food crop construction for pellet energy.

Wood pellet fuel at present dominates the pellet fuel market, on the other hand in the future the pellet fuel market cannot solely depend on biomass pellets, along with supplementary forms of wood energy pellets will be required. One of the main areas where supplementary waste wood is abundant is agriculture. In generating food crops, there is a lot of biomass growth which is still seen as waste, with no use. However, most of this wood can be upgraded into fuel pellets for pellet stoves in addition to boilers. As mentioned above, wheat grass is one of these, also barley grass, corn cobs plus corn stalks to name but a few. This way food is solely used for food, along with the waste is used for energy. This could help develop the food industry and create growing food more profitable, without growing food prices. Therefore it could address the two main issues facing the world simultaneously. We also encourages completing the cycle from raw materials to finished energy pellets all locally. This has two main benefits, it generates more local jobs while at the same time reduces shipping dropping charge plus carbon emissions.
