How Does a Wood Boiler Work?

A wood boiler will generally be placed outside of your home, around 30 to 200 feet away (500 feet at most). Wood boilers are compatible with any pre-existing heating systems. It heats water that is circulated into your home by insulated piping. Since wood boilers rely on wood as their fuel source, you will need to occasionally replace the wood inside of your wood boiler. When installed with an additional water-to-water heat exchanger, a wood boiler can also produce hot water for your home and replace your water heater.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Wood Boilers

There are a variety of reasons why getting a wood boiler may be the correct choice for your Wisconsin home.

To better determine if a central wood boiler is the best heating system for your home, you can consider the following pros and cons:

Advantages:

Lower heating costs
Lower hot water costs
You can heat multiple locations
Lower emissions

Disadvantages:

Higher initial cost
Regular loading of wood

If you regularly cut your firewood, keeping a central boiler fueled is fairly simple and convenient. Depending on your wood boiler and its capacity, you will generally need to replace the wood once every 10 hours or 3-4 days.
