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:

Thinnings 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

New Additions to the Froling Woodchip Boiler Range

For larger commercial and industrial applications, the Froling woodchip range also includes:

Froling TMe (300–550 kW) – a fully automatic shaving and pellet boiler with a high-temperature combustion chamber, suited to larger commercial buildings.
Froling LMe (800–1,200 kW) – a waste wood and shaving heating system for the upper output range, featuring high-temperature combustion and Lambda control for industrial-scale demand.
Froling Lambdamat (750–1,500 kW) – Froling’s largest waste wood and shaving system, combining high-temperature combustion with Lambda control for the most demanding industrial projects.
