Modern pellet boilers meet the highest standards as well as the most demanding European standards regarding exhaust emissions. Pellet (biomass) is made from the remains of deciduous trees or other waste and is in the form of easy-to-use granules. Biomass boilers are
unlike hoppers, automated devices. In practice, this means that they are largely maintenance-free, while older ones need to be serviced at least once a day.

Which device is right for me?

When choosing a pellet boiler, we must pay attention to two important issues. Firstly, match it to the place where it will be located in the house, and secondly, you need to pay attention to the required chimney draft. If we install the device into an existing heating installation, it is worth remembering to clean and rinse it before installation. It is also necessary to determine what type of installation we are dealing with – gravity or pump – and how it is secured – in an open or closed system.

Why is it worth replacing an old boiler with a pellet one?

This purchase is simply worth it. It is worth remembering that this is an investment that pays off because boilers of this type automatically adjust fuel combustion to changes in the building’s heat demand. If the controller is properly set, we do not waste fuel for heating when the room temperature is sufficient.

It is also worth investing in this type of boiler for ecological reasons. Pellet, unlike gas and coal, is not a fossil fuel, but a renewable energy source. Additionally, you can receive funding for the replacement of the device. Investment in this type of heat source is covered by the “Clean Air” program, under which you can receive a subsidy of up to 18,000 PLN.

Once we have the boiler…

After purchasing and installing the boiler, in order to enjoy its use as long as possible, you should first of all use high-quality fuel. No less important is to guarantee conditions that will ensure proper operating parameters of the device. For example, if the heating water return temperature to the device is too low, the so-called phenomenon may occur. “boiler sweating”. As a result, the device may corrode much faster, which reduces its service life. Failure to properly secure the minimum operating temperature may also result in loss of warranty.

When replacing a heat source, it is also worth paying attention to securing appropriate, modern fittings. If you need professional advice in choosing a boiler, as well as additional equipment, our employees are waiting for you. You can check the current offer of devices here.
