BIOMASS BOILERS

What is Biomass?

Biomass is organic matter of recent origin. It doesn't include fossil fuel, that has taken millions of years to evolve. The CO2 released when energy is generated from biomass is balanced by that absorbed during the fuel's production. We call this a carbon-neutral process.

The Boiler

Biomass Boilers can easily be installed as new by ecoBadger, or to replace your current gas or oil boilers. But instead of burning the rapidly diminishing supply of fossil fuels it burns a sustainable alternative called biomass e.g. reconstituted wooden pellets. This produces heat for your central heating system and hot water while helping to counter the impacts of climate change. For information on the different biomass boilers available please contact us.

How much fuel will it use?

It is virtually impossible to predict how much fuel it will need. This depends on how often you use it and how large your property is.

Does it need a lot of maintenance?

Maintenance is easy due to the high efficiency of the boiler. The boiler produces 1-2% ash, which is an organic, free fertiliser that can easily be spread on your garden.

How is it operated?

The boilers are electronically controlled so after our friendly technicians at ecoBadger install your boiler we will set the control panel to your particular application allowing your boiler to be automatically controlled by a timer in your home or office.
