Thermal Storage Tank For Wood Boiler

Fully automatic wood pellet and wood chip boilers can be installed without thermal buffer tanks in some applications but the use of thermal storage is generally advised for reducing burner starts reducing wear on cycling parts decreasing emissions and the need for boiler service while improving heating response times.

Thermal storage tank for wood boiler.

By absorbing extra heat generated during the burn cycle heat storage allows wood boilers to operate with less tending lower emissions andhigher efficiency. However our belief in the use of thermal storage has given us decades of valuable integration experience. Heavy tank insulation holds stored heat allowing for 24 hours or more between burn cycles. Tanks store nearly all the heat produced by the boiler and keep it available for when it is needed.

Over the years we have taken some heat for being dogged proponents of the use of thermal storage in wood burning installations. Thermal storage tanks are used in solar heating systems and wood boilers where you need to store the produced heat in water for later use. The benifits of wood burning w thermal storage optimized combustion by allowing the boiler to run wide open. The heat storage acts as a buffer between the boiler output and the house s heat demand.

We have tanks from. Tarm biomass has been utilizing thermal storage with wood boilers since 1998.
