In the face of the energy crisis and the ongoing climate changes caused by human activity, more and more peoples decide to change their systems of heating to be ecological systems. The general tendency to abandon fossil fuels as an energy source, make people to looking for effective for their house sources of renewable green energy and energy obtained from ecological sources.
Solar panel and biomass boiler have become one of such popular sources of obtaining or producing ecological energy. Most of us know solar panels and see more and more of them around us, but not everyone knows how a biomass boiler works. A biomass boiler can be installed and used almost anywhere, it is especially popular in rural areas. A biomass boiler is a device for heating water that this water can be used for direct needs and as water supplying a home central heating system. The biomass boiler is especially recommended for installation in a family house.
The use of biomass is an alternative to fossil fuels, providing sustainable energy and a sense of security in terms of fuel supply. Burning biomass is a relatively cheap source of fuel, especially if you burn wood waste and by-products such as straw and sawdust. Energy crops such as poplar and willow are also cheap sources of energy. These plants are grown to provide biomass raw materials.
Unfortunately, this solution is not free from disadvantages and that is why for many years companies involved in the construction and production of biomass boilers have been introducing newer and newer boilers that are more economical in biomass consumption.
A modern biomass boiler requires an experienced and well-trained engineer to install it and ensure its proper operation for many months and periodic maintenance. Computer-controlled biomass boilers are a very efficient source of renewable energy, therefore, in some European countries, biomass combustion has become one of the important sources of renewable energy.
Biomass boiler that burn biomass such as logs, wood chips or any material obtained from biological sources to produce alternative heating solutions are a very cost-effective renewable energy solution. Such a boiler increases the heating efficiency of the installation, protects the environment and reduces our fuel bills. Biomass boilers are known to be carbon-neutral energy sources because they do not adversely affect the delicate carbon balance of the Earth.
In gas-free areas and in rural areas where biomass availability is greater, the system of biomass boilers is extremely cost-effective. Biomass fuels are typically delivered in the form of wood chips or wood pellets and can stimulate local economic activity by creating fuel chains and using local biomass resources. Besides, biomass boilers provide the following advantages:
– Biomass boiler is clean, without the presence of soot and other particles
– you can get a grant for a biomass boiler from the government
– biomass boiler is independent of oil and gas prices
If you are thinking of installing a biomass boiler in your home, I would like to give you advice to contact to your biomass boiler service engineer and ask them to prepare the best solution for your home.
It’s good to know that biomass boilers are a great way to heat your home without huge gas bills. The boilers are not that expensive as some people think and are readily available online as well, and your engineer will help you buy a boiler suitable for your home and ensure installation and its future maintenance.
