Wood Pellet Advice

    I am currently building a new house with a garage. I plan to use the
    wood
    pellet system to heat my home. I also plan to get a hopper to store the
    pellets which i will put in the garage. My garage is 6m by 7. Can you
    give
    me any guide on garage design. Also does the hopper come complete or
    does it
    have to be assembled. Will my garage door be big enough to allow it to
    fit
    in.
    Is there an opening in the garage wall to allow for delivery of the
    pellets.
    I plan to put the hopper at the back of the garage along side the
    boiler.
    Secondly should I get a back up system and install a stanley stove with
    a
    back boler and heating for approx 8 rads. I have two open fires.
    Thank in advance of your advice,
    Regards, Celine

    Hi,

    Why not build your own storage tank in the garage ? you will save a lot of money, probably enough to buy a Hunter stove to link to your pellet system.

    Hi Pete,

    Thanks for that. By any chance, have you any experience of how to go about building one of these storage tanks, I believe there is a need for insulation for to keep pellet moisture free.

    Also funnel into Auger?

    Thanks Ronan.
