Woody Gasification Boiler

The combustion system employed in the Woody Gasification Boiler solves most of the problems associated with conventional wood boiler. Combining wood gas and smoke with high temperature oxygen results in a super-hot flame in the ceramic combustion tunnel. The gases stay in this hot, turbulent environment long enough to achieve an 85% combustion efficiency, this is what we call wood gasification. You only need to fill your boiler once a day with fuel in the winter time. Feel good about heating with wood without becoming a slave to a heater that needs a mountain of wood
to keep you warm.

Boiler Sizing

Boiler size will be determined predominantly by the heat loss of the heated building. Heat loss can be accurately calculated by a qualified professional. Wood type may also play a part in your sizing decisions. It is important to remember that soft woods contain lower heat value than hard woods. If you do plan to burn predominantly soft woods, consider buying a larger Solo Plus boiler due to its larger fire box size.

Hotwater Storage

Many Gasification boilers are installed without additional heat storage. The Gasification Boiler cycles on and off to maintain constant boiler temperature, and to provide the heat desired. However, greater operating flexibility and even higher efficiency can be achieved through use of heat storage. Heat storage allows the boiler to be burned at full output until the full load of wood is consumed. When the house doesn't need all of the heat produced during this full hot burn, the unneeded heat will be stored for use at a later time. The range of Dolphin Hot Water Storage Cylinders are the ideal partner for your Gasification Boiler.
