The Benefits of Choosing Premium Wood Pellet Fuel
Choosing the right wood pellets for your boiler is important. You need to consider its type and how long you want it to last.
Premium wood pellet fuel ensures longevity because it is high in density and also has a high calorific value, perfect for keeping your home snug and warm over winter.
Why opt for premium wood pellet fuel
There are three main reasons for why opting for a premium wood pellet is the better solution:
1. Biomass heating is far kinder to the environment, but that doesn’t mean you can’t optimise this further. Premium wood pellet fuel has a better overall energy performance whilst giving off minimal greenhouse gas emissions. You’ll also find you spend less on running costs, a significant reason why premium pellets are growing in popularity.
2. More energy-efficient fuel comes from a better quality pellet. Premium wood pellet fuel typically has a lower moisture content (up to 10% less) and that makes for a higher calorific value. This makes them suitable for wood stoves and other heating systems.
3. Opting for bulk delivery of premium wood pellets also means you will be contributing less to carbon emissions as you will need fewer deliveries each year. You won’t burn through your pellet stash as quickly as you would with a poorer quality pellet.
Improved composition
What sets out premium wood pellet fuel from cheaper alternatives is primarily their composition. Smaller granules, with a diameter of six to eight millimetres, are produced and because they’re free from artificial additives, bark and other unwanted debris they have a better burn.
An eco-friendly material, you will also notice with premium wood pellets that the residual ash after burning is a lot less than you might expect – another sign of the purity of the premium pellet. What’s more, as there are no additives and other debris in the pellets, the ash makes for a fantastic natural fertiliser.
Premium pellets meet European standards for biomass fuel and opting for a better quality pellet means a better thermal output. For your home in the depths of winter, this is welcome news.
