Burns what you’ve already got

If it grows, we can probably burn it. Wet or dry, clean or dirty. One load of chips like this runs a greenhouse for weeks.

Wood chips · Sawmill waste & bark · Straw · Corn stover · Husks & screenings · Pellets

Designed and built in Headingley

The chain grate that doesn’t jam

Fuel spreads evenly across a moving grate of solid 6″ x 1″ x 2″ high-temp steel bars. The whole bed burns, not just a hot spot. As the grate turns over the end, ash drops off and leaves the system on its own. Wet chips, dirty bark, straw, husks: it keeps turning.

Our own controls

We can see your boiler from our shop

Our panels are built and wired in our own panel shop in Headingley, and we write the control program ourselves. A touch screen on the boiler, the same screen on your phone, and remote access from our shop. When something drifts, we often know before you call. Parts are on the shelf. Techs go on site.

About half our customers use a grant

Canadian and US programs can cover a big part of a biomass system. Most need approval before you order, so talk to us first. We’ll point you at the ones that fit your project and your province or state.
