Making informed choices about the right boiler for you involves an assessment of your heating needs, the type of home you’ve chosen, and your lifestyle.
What are Your Heating Priorities?
Determining your heating needs involves an assessment of the individuals living within your home. Do you have small children or older adults who may need a warmer environment? Is your home empty for most of the day while you or your spouse are at work?
How Does Your Home Factor Into Your Choices?
Is your home passive solar, thus providing you with ample ancillary heat, or do you have an historic home that requires additional warmth due to drafts and attic heat loss?
How Do You Live?
While BioHeatUSA boilers are extremely efficient, and easy to use, they still require some tending. Are you able to load wood into the boiler two or three times a day? Firewood requires a great deal of physical work preparing and storing the fuel and tending the boiler; it also offers the most economical way to heat your home. Would you prefer to load pellets into a hopper two or three times a week? Pellets offer a lot of convenience with relatively easy fuel handling and limited boiler tending; the trade-off is higher fuel and boiler purchase prices than firewood and wood boilers.
