Woodchip Boilers

Woodchip Boilers: Sustainable Heat for Larger Systems

Woodchip boilers offer a robust and cost-effective heating solution, especially for properties with access to local timber resources. Though they require more space and handling than pellet systems, the long-term savings and environmental benefits are substantial.

Bigger Systems, Bigger Savings

• Larger plantroom required due to fuel handling equipment
• Lower running costs, especially with your own wood supply
• Supports local forestry, boosting the regional economy

Fuel Source: Forest Residue

Woodchip is typically made from:

• Thinning’s and offcuts from forestry
• Smaller sections of trees unsuitable for lumber
• A sustainable use of otherwise low-value biomass

Heavy-Duty Engineering

Woodchip boilers need:

• Sweeping arm systems to agitate fuel
• Large augers and motors for consistent feed
• Higher upfront costs for smaller systems due to equipment scale
