Automatic wodd pellet boiler comfort

The Fröling PE1 automatic wood pellet boiler is ingenious and fully automatic. It can replace an oil or gas boiler and can be relied upon to run for a month or more at a time without human touch. The boiler modulates to match the heating load and uses very little power to operate. The wood pellet boiler uses long-lasting, low energy, hot surface igniter for ignition. Other unique features that set the boiler apart from other wood pellet boilers are a combustion grate that slides to clean while at the same time integrating a chimney cut-off function to retain heat in the boiler when not actively burning. The standard wood pellet fuel vacuum can be located any place along the return air-line for easy service and sound management.

First Look at the New Fröling PE1 Automatic Pellet Boiler

Speed Regulated Draft Fan and Lambda Control

A speed regulated fan combined with oxygen and temperature based exhaust sensors allow Fröling PE1 boilers to modulate output while remaining clean and efficient. The boiler can react to changing pellet fuel (harder/softer, more/less pitch, small/large pellets) while still remaining clean. The use of oxygen control is less common, but it is the best way to ensure the cleanest burn possible. Standard large touch screens enable internet connectivity and the ability to view multiple functions at a single glance. Fröling PE1 controls track fuel use, maintenance, and the function of all electric components.

Connectivity

Fröling Connect software allows free remote monitoring and control from web enabled devices. You can read and modify the main status information and settings easily and conveniently on-line. It is also possible to store historic operating information and receive warnings such as when the ash box is full. It allows the owner of the heating system to enable additional users, for example a family member, neighbor, or service technician. Once the boiler is connected to the internet, the system can be accessed 24/7 from everywhere using a smartphone, tablet, or PC with web browser.
