Biomass Boilers + Approved Servicing & Maintenance

Biomass Boilers have been a big player in the UK renewable energy market for a number of years now and they are a very adaptable and versatile technology that can be installed to give carbon-neutral heat in a range of different applications.

Our dedicated engineers are trained up to the highest standards on more than dozen different brands of biomass boiler systems to carry out installations, servicing and maintenance while working directly with manufacturers and main UK distributors to uphold manufacturer warranty on systems.

We install and maintain all types and sizes of biomass boiler from the domestic 10kW pellet boilers to 500kW wood chip/pellet systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Biomass Boiler and how does it work?

A biomass boiler is a heat generating source that burns wood (pellets, chips or logs) instead of fossil fuels.The boiler works just like a normal domestic or commercial boiler except biomass boilers typically take up more room, have more components and heat to higher temperatures.

Does my Biomass Boiler need to be serviced by the company that installed it?

No. We inherit new biomass systems on a weekly basis due to other installers and companies vanishing or customers just simply not happy with the service they where receiving. We are trained and backed by manufacturers on over a dozen models of Biomass Boiler we are constantly expanding our knowledge of biomass across the range. This means that we can carry out servicing, repairs and amendments to your system while ensuring all work is supporting the Manufacturer Warranty (usually 5 years). It is important to note that biomass systems are very complex systems that require highly trained engineers to service and maintain them so this should only be undertaken by a competent person with the correct training, failure of this could result in Manufacturers Warranty being Void.

Why not give our team a call today to find out if we can cover your biomass boiler with our 24hr technical support and breakdown assistance on 01228 318900.

Will having a Biomass Boiler take up a lot of my time?

No, biomass systems can be designed as fully automated, we always recommend that you check on your biomass system on a monthly basis and empty the ash box if required. While doing this there are standard checks to carry out such as system pressure checks and error report checks but all of this should not take longer than 5 minutes.

Is a Biomass Boiler still a good investment?

Yes, providing that you have a genuine use for the heat i.e 1 or more houses, a commercial building or farm running on fossil fuels and needing heated on a year round basis. A biomass installation is typically more than double the capital outlay of a fossil fuel boiler however you receive payments for the heat you produce through the RHI scheme for the next 20 years and systems are typically paid off in between 6-10 years.

How can Biomass help my farm?

Biomass Boilers are a great way to reduce the cost of milk production or everyday farm bills. Biomass does this by heating the water in your dairy, calf shed, house and offices with wood. This means that instead of paying 14p per kW of electricity to heat that those spaces you get paid to heat them! Through the RHI scheme, reducing overheads & providing a sustainable investment for the future.

Why is Biomass a renewable technology?

The carbon dioxide that is emitted when the wood is burned inside the boiler is equal to the amount that was absorbed by the wood over the months and years that the tree was growing. This process is sustainable as long as new plants continue to be planted and grow in place of those used for fuel. There are some carbon emissions caused by the cultivation, manufacture and transportation of the fuel, but as long as the fuel is sourced locally, these are much lower than the emissions from fossil fuels.

Are Biomass Boilers reliable?

In a word, yes! However... Biomass systems are admittedly less reliable than your standard oil or gas heating system due to the significant complexity of the systems, biomass boilers have a very intricate set of controls and monitoring devices to ensure their smooth functioning. Other things such as foreign bodies in the fuel, unsatisfactory wood, high moisture content and parts failures can cause the system to function inefficiently or even shut down. The likelihood of any these issues can be significantly reduced with a good maintenance schedule any of these issues can be swiftly resolved with a quick phone call to A B Energy Centre on 01228 318900.
