Wood pellets boiler

Wood pellets are small pellets of dried wood. Thanks to the pill form of fuel wood can thus be similarly easy to use for heating such as oil or gas. Depending on the demand for heat, the pellets are automatically transported from the storage room or tank in the boiler - just the ashes must be emptied occasionally. The advantage of the pellets: The burning of the wood is only so much carbon dioxide is released as the plant was committed during their growth. The disadvantage is that the pellets need a large, dry storage area.

Cost: A wood pellet heating costs 7,000-17,000 € without transport system and regulation. Therefore, the fuel is generally cheaper than natural gas or fuel oil. Last year, the pellets were even cheaper by half. Savings: Compared with the standard gas back boilers costs, the annual operation of a wood pellet boiler  is € 1,421 instead of 2,509 €. That's almost 1,100 Euros less. It appears that heating with renewable energy is cheaper than oil or gas. With the replacement of the old boiler, you should not wait any longer, especially when it is older than 20 years. The effort pays off within a few years.

Renewable energy sources change as well. For example, the combination of a new back boiler with a solar system. Even better, however, is the full transition, such as a wood pellet heating system. If you have an old heat pump, you should replace it as soon as possible. Old pumps are energy guzzlers. Highly efficient appliances are out there from 300 €. For solar systems, heat pumps and wood pellet boiler, the Federal Office for Economic Affairs (ACFA) offers grants amounting to several thousand Euros. Those who use fossil fuels such as gas or oil may remain in that state development bank KfW grant request from 5 percent. By using this guide, you can reduce your energy costs by 30 percent. In addition, there are 10 new partners: Ricks: A major energy consumer has recently been abolished: the 100-watt light bulb. Since 1 September they may be sold only from remnants. A good reason to make more power robbers an end - and to do something for the environment and your wallet. Light is currently only one aspect. This 10-point plan can reduce the electricity bill each year by up to 30 percent.

In electronics, people waste money unnecessarily. When you turn on the TV € 10 per year is lost in the hi-fi system 13, the DVD player 9, plus the computer monitor 27, the inkjet printer 18, the DSL router 16, the digital picture frame 12 €. The Espresso machine also it has a stand-by problem. So they should turn it off at night and turn if off when not in use. Washing machines should be filled completely. Otherwise the per wash loss cost is up to one euro. Extra Tip: Select Pre-wash only with heavy pollution. Who decided not to save every time 10 cents? Check whether the machine can be connected directly to the hot water pipe. This water is heated namely cheap gas or oil, not like in the machine with expensive electricity. Saves about 60 percent.
