Renewable Heating System

This Vermont family was looking to replace their oil fired heating system with a more environmentally and economically suitable alternative. HB Energy installed a Pellergy wood pellet boiler that is fed automatically from a metal 4 ton bin. Instead of emptying bags of wood pellets into the system, a specially designed bulk wood pellet truck blows the pellets into the storage bin. The bin is connected to a light upstairs that will signal when the family has approximately 2 weeks left of fuel in the storage bin and should arrange for a delivery. To reduce the amount of wood pellets burned in the Spring, Summer, and Fall, HB Energy Solutions also installed a domestic solar hot water heating system. This system heats the majority of hot water used for purposes other than heating, such as laundry bathing etc.
