Hi Tony.
you could do but....
A: Its not here till December
B: It doesn't use one as its got an intergrated buffer and is designed to work more like a normal oil boiler
What exactly is it you like/why? If you look at the manual for the one I'm getting you'll see the details etc

Only it isn't like an oil boiler. An oil boiler you can switch on and off instantly whereas a biomass boiler carries on burning. To avoid wasting fuel and short cycling which will reduce the life of the boiler you need a decent sized buffer vessel.

I don't know why there's so much negativity about a bloody boiler!? Have a look though the manual/brochure and you'll see how it works.

I know its not an oil boiler, you can't find a bad word said about them. Its the control side that makes them work efficiently. Its designed from Domestic use from the off, if you do some research there's a fair few that don't run like 'normal' boimass boilers.
So you did NOT get it all sorted today then? Not "Delivered/connected/setup/commissioned with a few extra parts included".
So its not what you have said here then.
And to think you could have got a normal gas boiler within a couple of weeks and for about £3.5 k and at a fraction of the cost of your order for later delivery and installation, hopefully before Christmas.
Tony
I did point that out. Sorted as in ordered with the rest included. Jeeezz.
Yes and to think I could have spent 3.5k on a gas boiler..... Or buy a biomass and get 3x the cost back over 7 years. I really wish I had gone for the gas option.....
The biomass will be in before Christmas, its one of the agreements as there's a 10% reduction in rates after the new year.

You're quite right this especially concerns wood pellet boilers.
They are becoming extreemely popular judging by wood pellet offers

As a thread update, I've plumbed the house and 'boiler room' ready for its arrival. It arrived in the country last week, gets delivered to me on Friday, commissioning on the 17th. Can't wait as its getting nippy now with the bathroom at 8Deg!
Will do. All the gear arrived today. managed to get a 300kg boiler through the house into its new resting place. Silo is built, just a few bits to bolt onto it, wire the external weather sensor and room thermostats back to it.
I'll put some pics up when the rooms 'tidy' so you can see whats there. The good news is that the rates are only going down by 10% in January so it'll still be a 'no-brainer' for lots of people.
