We recently moved in to our new house. The sitting room and office are upstairs(best view overlooking Galway Bay) The builder only put in one chimney for downstairs, even though there was one in the plans for upstairs. A wood burning stove. My question is this. Would it be possible to integrate...

I am a lazy soul at heart, therefore the 3 tonne silo which should keep the boiler going for a few months with only the ashes to clear every few weeks. The auger from the boiler feeds directly from the silo.

There is a sawmill in County Cork which for years had to pay to have waste sawdust removed, Some years ago they installed a processing plant to convert the waste, sawdust and offcuts, to pellets. They now have one large boiler heating the drying house for the timber, and another drives a steam...

Thanks for the quick reply guys. I chose underfloor because I dont like the idea of radiators they take up too much space and people have a tendancy to practically sit on them in cold weather. One of the problems with wood pellets is the inconsistency you get in pellet size and quality from the...

Howdy, I recently put in a wood pellet burner in my shed (new house) and when the guy came to commision the boiler he said the flue was too low. The flue as it stands is out the side wall and up. I need to put it straight up through the roof. There is no gable end to the shed and it is a slate...
