Wood Pellet Boilers Helping To Beat Rising Fuel Costs Say Eco Energy Depot

Jan. 30, 2012 - PRLog -- Leading UK wood pellet boiler supplier, Eco Energy Depot of Liverpool, is reporting an increase in the number of enquiries, surveys and sales from people looking to save money on heating costs.

Eco Energy Depot sales manager, Liam Jones, announced, “We’re delighted to see that more and more people are becoming aware of the advantages that wood pellet boilers can offer.  As well as better performance and efficiency, wood pellet boilers and stoves are extremely cost effective too.  Traditional boilers, especially old ones, are perhaps only 60-70% efficient whilst many of the boilers and stoves we supply and fit are more than 90% efficient.  Those people using oil, LPG or coal, could half their heating costs by using renewable heating such as wood pellet boilers and stoves.”

Those who buy a wood pellet boiler or stoves from Eco Energy Depot are also able to take advantage of a guaranteed price for their wood pellets over a fixed period of up to 3 years, so that they know how much their heating bill will be.   Unlike gas and electric prices, which seem to be rising all the time, buying from the Eco Energy Depot ensures that the cost of wood pellets will remain the same for those customers who take out a wood pellet contract.  This is possible thanks to partner companies Liverpool Wood pellets and Ignite Wood Fuels.

Liam continued, “We’re really keen to show people the benefits of using wood pellet boilers and stoves for heating homes and business premises.    Our Liverpool showroom sees many visitors, many of whom are attracted by the extensive range of wood burning stoves and boilers we have on display.  We can also quickly supply models that aren’t in stock. We’ve worked in conjunction with those involved in the construction of new buildings, and the refurbishment of older buildings, as well as business and domestic customers who want to save money.  Whether you’re looking to heat a home, hotel or factory, we’re confident that we can supply you with the right boiler.”

As well as supplying wood pellet boilers and stoves, the Eco Energy Depot also carries out the sale and installation of solar panels.  With many years of experience of supplying and fitting solar panels, the Eco Energy Depot is also proving to be the first stop for many people who are looking to take advantage of solar powered heating.

Renewable heating such as using wood pellet boilers will qualify for the governments Renewable Heating Initiative, (RHI), which gives users of renewable heating systems an annual payment.  This is already in place for commercial customers, and will be introduced for domestic customers from Q4 2012.  This means that the boiler will earn money rather than cost money, and could pay for itself in less than 10 years, sometimes as few as 5 years, depending on the model and output.  

Demand for wood pellet boilers and stoves and other types of renewable heating is likely to surge as the RHI for domestic users is introduced later this year and here is increased media coverage.  The Eco Energy Depot is recommending that those looking for a new boiler for use in the home or workplace, arrange delivery and installation sooner rather than later so that they can take advantage of the RHI as soon as it is introduced, and don’t have to wait a long time to have their boiler fitted.  Additional installation engineers are being recruited and trained by the Eco Energy Depot in order to cope with the expected demand for wood pellet heating.
