Our Residential Wood Pellet Boiler - The Fröling PE1

The Fröling PE1 is a compact, fully automatic wood pellet boiler ideal for homes and small buildings. 
It’s quiet, efficient, and designed for long-lasting, hands-off operation.
Key Features:
  • Fully automatic ignition and cleaning for low maintenance
  • Quiet operation with energy-saving variable-speed motors
  • Touchscreen interface with internet connectivity for remote monitoring
  • Modulates from 30% to 100% output for maximum efficiency

How Pellet Boilers Work

Pellet boilers draw fuel automatically from the hopper via auger or pneumatic systems. Pellets are ignited and burned in a combustion chamber where heat is transferred to water. A buffer tank stores excess heat to balance load and keep the boiler running efficiently. Automatic cleaning cycles keep ash buildup low, reducing hands-on maintenance.

Key Benefits of Pellet Boilers for Domestic Use

  • Lower Fuel Costs
    Pellets remain competitively priced
and predictable.
  • Simplified Operation:
    Automatic ignition, hopper feed, and cleaning cycles reduce user involvement.
  • Incentives
    Our pellet boilers qualify for many state and federal rebate programs. Contact us to learn more if you qualify.
  • Eco-Friendly
    Renewable, low-carbon heat with EPA-grade emissions controls.

What to Consider With a Wood
Pellet Central Heating System

When choosing a residential wood boiler or commercial wood boiler fueled with pellets, selecting the right system for your needs is essential. Consider the following factors:

Pellet Boiler
Location

Adequate space is required for fuel storage, the boiler, and the buffer tank. Our compact pellet boilers usually fit into the space of your old boiler, and we can guide you through sizing options for the best fit.

Your Heating
Demands

Depending on your heating requirements, a larger model or multiple boilers may be a good choice. Multiple boilers can operate together as one seamless system. Most homes only need one boiler, but larger commercial spaces may require multiple boilers.

Regulations

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has specific wood-burning boiler standards, including regulations for wood pellet hydronic heaters. All modern wood-burning appliances must comply with these standards for clean air. We recommend purchasing your pellet boiler from a trusted company that can help you comply with regulations and provide service and support for many years.

Cleaning Procedures

Pellet boilers, like the Fröling, require minimal hand cleaning since the burners have automatic cleaning systems. We help you with after-purchase installation, usage, and maintenance. You always know where to go for help, whether you purchased from one of our local installers or directly from us.

 Differences between Wood Pellet and Wood Chip Boilers

Feature Wood Pellet
Boilers		 Wood Chip
Boilers
Fuel Type Compressed, uniform pellets Raw or semi-processed wood chips
Fuel Consistency Highly consistent in size and moisture Varies in size and moisture content
Storage Needs Requires a smaller, dry, sealed hopper or silo Needs a larger silo or bunker with a more robust chip handling system
Automation High — easy to automate fuel feed and ash removal Moderate — automation possible but more complex
Maintenance Low — self-cleaning and less residue Higher — more frequent cleaning due to variable fuel
Installation Size Compact; ideal for homes and smaller commercial spaces Bigger footprint; better for larger commercial buildings
Fuel Cost Higher per ton but more energy-dense Lower cost, especially with local supply

Ideal Applications for Pellet Boilers

  • Residential heating for single-family homes, cabins, and rural properties.
  • Multi-unit buildings like apartments or townhomes with shared hydronic systems.
  • Light commercial facilities, including offices, retail shops, and small warehouses.
  • Public and institutional buildings such as schools, municipal centers, and libraries
  • Retrofits and energy-efficient new builds seeking renewable heating solutions
  • Properties with limited indoor storage, thanks to compact pellet silo options

What Our Clients Say About Us

Kevin from Maine: PE1 20 w/ Cube Pellet Storage
I love my Fröling PE1 pellet boiler as compared to my previous pellet boiler. It uses less wood pellets and is way more efficient. I currently only clean it once a year and this boiler is used year round. My previous pellet boiler was cleaned roughly every 3 to 4 weeks. I also bought a variable speed circulating pump from Froling Wood Boilers, which I find to be an excellent pump. The pellet boiler itself tells the circulating pump how fast it needs to turn, it has a sensing line. Overall I am very happy with my decision to purchase a Froling pellet boiler.
Richard from Michigan - PE1 35
I’m in the second season of using my Fröling PE1 pellet boiler and I love it!
