What are Wood Pellets
The new Heating Systems use the waste from saw mills, which are compressed into a pellet to give an efficient and eco-friendly heating solution for your home or office.
The pellets are made by applying very high pressure to graded sawdust, which is pure timber waste. This waste is produced in vast quantities by sawmills, carpentry works and other activities associated with the working and transformation of timber.
This type of fuel is completely environmentally friendly as no binders of any kind are used to keep it compact. In fact, the compactness of the pellets over time is guaranteed by a natural substance found in timber called lignite.
As well as being environmentally friendly, because the wood residues are exploited to the maximum, the pellets also have the technical advantage of having a higher power to weight ratio than normal timber material. As a result there is very little waste product produced and little coking up of burners.
Removing the waste
The pellets burn very efficiently producing minimum waste. Typically the waste tray needs emptying once every 4 to 8 weeks. The waste is completely biodegradable and can be put on the garden as fertiliser.
